NON-CARDIAC COMPLICATIONS OF PRIMARY PCI DR

Non-cardiac complications of PCI and P.PCI are uncommon but may be dramatic.Here we will discuss about these complications with trend to P.PCI.In some studies,the abbreviation of MANE (Major adverse noncardiac events),is used to explain some of these complications.Bleeding and contrast nephropathy Are the major ones and the others may not be major.the causes of bleeding may be related to use of antiplatelets, antithrombins, and thronbolytics in these patterns.Contrast nephropathy is the other problem and can be related to amount and type of injected dye,function of kidney and concomitant drug use. Cerebrovascular accident is aonther complication and despite low frequency can have high morbidity and mortality.this problem is mainly due to atheroembolism or thromboembolism,but in very rare condition may be due to hemorrhage. The other problem of P.PCI is vascular complications and can be due to vessel injury,small size of arteries or female sex.
