Résumé

Distal embolization during primary percutaneous coronary intervention (p-PCI) in the treatment of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is associated with a poor prognosis. In this situation, thrombectomy is performed to prevent distal embolization and to restore myocardial reperfusion. The aim of our study was to determine angiographic predictors of angiographically visible distal embolization (AVDE) in patients with STEMI treated by p‑PCI with thrombectomy.
