Abstract
Two patients undergoing intracoronary ultrasound examination were comp licated by acute coronary artery closure. One of the complications was thought to be caused by intimal dissection and thrombus formation and the other was thought to be caused by intimal dissection and subseque nt embolization. The complications were successfully managed conservat ively in both cases. (C) 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
