Abstract
It is generally believed that the Palmaz-Schatz stent maintains a strong radial force, preventing stent recoil. However, the capacity to prevent recoil is largely governed by the hardness or resistance of the lesion. We report two cases of 'acute Palmaz-Schatz stent recoil,' documented by intravascular ultrasound, and suggest a novel treatment of this unusual problem.
