Abstract:
The no-reflow phenomenon is a complication of percutaneous coronary intervention resulting in poor myocardial perfusion and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. It is vital for cardiologist to recognise this phenomenon as it is clinically significant. We reported two cases of no reflow phenomenon occurred in the same day and discussed its predisposing factors, possible aetiology, managements and its successful outcome.
