    Abstract:
    A 74-yr-old man with two prior coronary bypass surgeries experienced perforation of an occluded aortocoronary vein graft during a transluminal extraction catheter (TEC) procedure for unstable angina. The perforation was successfully closed using a Palmaz 154 stent covered with a short segment of autologous antecubital vein.
