Impact of Stepwise Balloon Angioplasty for De Novo Femoropopliteal Artery: A Retrospective Observational Study. [PDF]

Health Sci Rep
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Drug‐coated balloon use in the revascularisation of femoropopliteal (FP) lesions improves patency rates. However, conventional balloon angioplasty sometimes leads to severe artery dissection, which may be prevented using stepwise balloon angioplasty.

Successful Implantation of New Coronary Sinus Lead Using Angioplasty for Lead-Related Vein Occlusion in a CRT-D Patient. [PDF]

Pacing Clin Electrophysiol
Abstract This case is a rare occurrence of atrial and coronary sinus (CS) lead dislocation 5 years post cardiac resynchronization therapy‐defibrillator (CRT‐D) implantation, thus necessitating a unique approach. The previous lead‐related vein occlusion was dilated with a balloon using methods typically employed in coronary procedures to address ...

Coronary Artery Aneurysm Post Drug-Coated Balloon Angioplasty [PDF]

JACC: Case Reports
Drug-coated balloons have emerged as effective therapy for treating in-stent restenosis and de novo lesions. The animal studies have shown the mechanism of action of paclitaxel-coated balloon in coronary arteries which leads to medial necrosis that may ...

Efficacy and safety of drug-coated balloon combined with cutting balloon for side branch of true coronary bifurcation lesions: Study protocol for a multicenter, prospective, randomized controlled trial

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
BackgroundCoronary bifurcation lesions are common of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), and the optimal interventional therapy strategy is still a matter of debate and remains a challenge for interventional cardiologists.

Balloon angioplasty of cardiac vein in a patient treated by cardiac resynchronization therapy [PDF]

Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2021
Introduction. Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) reduces mortality and hospitalization in patients with symptomatic heart failure and left bundle branch block (LBBB) on optimal drug therapy. Among all, the reasons for “non-response” to CRT pacemaker

Assessment of effect of coronary angioplasty within main trunk of left main coronary artery using scoring balloon catheter in comparison with technique using non-compliant balloon catheter – preliminary results

Annales Academiae Medicae Silesiensis, 2022
Introduction The paper discusses the techniques of modifying the atherosclerotic plaque in the left main coronary artery along with the results of the author’s own procedures using a scoring catheter (AngioSculpt) and a non-compliant (NC) balloon ...

Catheter-Assisted Balloon-Supported Retrieval of a Broken Semi-Compliant Balloon from a Coronary Artery [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2017
Incidents of broken balloon in a coronary vasculature during percutaneous coronary angioplasty are very rare. Such events in cath-lab may create panic and can be life threatening for patients.

iFR variations during coronary angioplasty

REC: Interventional Cardiology (English Ed.), 2020
A fifty-five year-old hypertensive and former smoker male admitted with signs of typical chest pain, left bundle brunch block, and normal troponin levels. The angiography revealed 2-vessel, left circumflex and right coronary artery disease.

Diagnostic Ultrasound Induced Inertial Cavitation To Non-Invasively Restore Coronary And Microvascular Flow In Acute Myocardial Infarction [PDF]

, 2013
Ultrasound induced cavitation has been explored as a method of dissolving intravascular and microvascular thrombi in acute myocardial infarction. The purpose of this study was to determine the type of cavitation required for success, and whether longer ...
