[The spiral of evil: iatrogenic coronary and aortic dissection].

Iatrogenic coronary and aortic dissection is one of the worst complication during a percutaneous coronary intervention. Nevertheless, it can be approached and effectively resolved by a percutaneous way, sealing the false lumen "entry door" with a covered stent, even if this device is more thrombogenic than other bare-metal or drug-eluting stents. We report the case of a 60-year-old man with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction complicated by both iatrogenic dissection and multiple stent thrombosis.
