Objectives In this retrospective observational study, we investigate outcome of patients treated with or without covered stent (CS) implantation in the management of coronary artery perforation (CAP) during coronary intervention. Background CSs have shown to be effective devices to achieve acute hemostasis in large CAP. However, doubts have been raised regarding their long‐term outcome. Methods Data of 19 061 PCI procedures during a 10‐year period were reviewed. Fifty‐five cases of large CAP were withheld (Ellis type 2, 3 or cavity spilling). All medical and procedural records of these cases were retrospectively reviewed. Results Twenty‐four (43.6%) patients were treated with CS implantation (15 polytetrafluoroethylene and 9 pericardium CSs). Twenty‐six (47.3%) patients were managed without CS implantation, of whom five had unsuccessful delivery of a CS (stent delivery failure 17.2%). Although significantly more Ellis type‐3 perforations were present in the CS group compared to the Non‐CS group (75.0% vs 45.2%; P = 0.03), in‐hospital mortality was not significantly different (8.3% vs 6.4%; P = 0.79). We observed a high rate of CS restenosis (29.2%) but a lower rate of CS thrombosis (4.2%). Despite these observations, 5‐year MACE and all‐cause mortality were not significantly different between CS and Non‐CS group (respectively, 58.8% vs 50.0% (P = 0.26) and 26.7% vs 13.3% (P = 0.36)). Conclusion Although deliverability of CSs was not flawless and a high rate of CS restenosis appeared, short‐ and long‐term outcome were comparable between patients treated with or without CS. Therefore, CSs are justifiable in the treatment of CAP.
