Abstract: This paper reports the case of an 83-year-old woman who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention in the left circumflex coronary artery complicated by a guidewire-induced perforation. Hemostasis was successfully achieved using a handmade coil prepared from available devices during percutaneous coronary intervention due to challenges with commercial microcoils.
