Iatrogenic acute aortic dissections during percutaneous coronary interventions are an extremely rare but potentially life-threaten-ing complication, occurring in less than 0.02% of transcatheter procedures. We report three patients with different characteristics suffering from iatrogenic aortic dissection during percutaneous coronary intervention successfully treated with an emergency open-heart surgery. A conservative strategy should be pursuit only in small, localized lesions.
