    During a pulmonary vein isolation atrial fibrillation procedure, the patient experienced ST elevation in the precordial leads after ablating with a TactiFlex SE catheter. After delivering ablation, two mics of Isuprel were administered to try to induce PVC's post-ablation. At this time, the patient began expressing discomfort and chest pain. Fentanyl was administered by anesthesia for the pain. It was noted that no obvious changes were observed, but upon review of the case slight ST elevation was noted in some of the precordial leads. During this point of the case, the physician looked at the LV on ICE and noted that the septal wall and apex of the left ventricle were no longer contracting. Cath lab physicians were called in and confirmed occlusion near the proximal ostia of the left anterior descending artery with contrast and fluoroscopy. During the cath portion of the procedure, the patient went into Ventricular Tachycardia and had to be shocked via external defibrillators. Intravascular ultrasound was brought in, and a dissection of the proximal left anterior descending artery was confirmed. A stent was placed, and the patient's septal wall of the left ventricle began contracti
