No-reflow phenomenon is frequently observed during percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with acute coronary syndrome. It may jeopardize hemodynamic status or result in ischemic chest pain in these patients. Currently, there is no adequate solution for this problem. We report our experience with an acute coronary syndrome patient who developed no-reflow phenomenon associated with ST segment elevation and shock after percuteneous coronary balloon dilatation and stent deployment. Intracoronary administration of tirofiban immediately restored the coronary flow of the target vessel, and the disastrous condition reversed. Our experience suggests that intracoronary administration of tirofiban can be considered as an option in case of no-reflow phenomenon during percutaneous coronary intervention.
