A comparison of balloon-expandable-stent implantation with balloon angioplasty in patients with coronary artery disease. Benestent Study Group.

New England Journal of Medicine, 1994
BACKGROUND Balloon-expandable coronary-artery stents were developed to prevent coronary restenosis after coronary angioplasty. These devices hold coronary vessels open at sites that have been dilated. However, it is unknown whether stenting improves long-

Importance of balloon size in coronary angioplasty

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 1989
The effect of balloon size on the success of coronary angioplasty was studied to develop quantitative criteria for optimal selection of balloon size. Coronary dimensions of 165 stenotic lesions were measured by computer-assisted cinevideodensitometry in 120 patients who had undergone angioplasty with a balloon selected by visual estimates.

PCI IN PATIENT WITH HEAVY CALCIFIED LESION. MANAGEMENT AND BALLOON RUPTURE COMPLICATION

Folia Medica Indonesiana, 2016
Balloon angioplasty in calcified coronary lesions may have a decreased success rate and an increased incidence of complications. This lesion remain a technical challenge in interventional cardiology despite novel approaches and devices.

Effectiveness of the Hugging Balloon Technique in Coronary Angioplasty for a Heavy, Encircling, Calcified Coronary Lesion [PDF]

, 2009
We report our experience in coronary angioplasty and intravascular ultrasonography (IVUS) on a heavy, encircling, calcified lesion that was not dilated with the use of a cutting balloon and a non-compliant balloon.

Complex regional pain syndrome after transfemoral coronary balloon angioplasty

Türk Kardiyoloji Derneği Arşivi, 2016
Presently described is the case of a 55-year-old man who developed localized pain, allodynia, hyperpathia, and swelling over the right ankle joint following coronary balloon angioplasty, which had been performed via right femoral arterial access.

Surgical retrieval of broken, inflated angioplasty balloon catheter within intracoronary stent: A real emergency

Annals of Cardiac Anaesthesia, 2021
A 54-year old, hypertensive female patient underwent percutaneous coronary angioplasty (PTCA) followed by stenting of calcified chronic totally occluded right coronary artery.

Rupture of the arterial wall causes deflection in pressure time course during ex vivo balloon angioplasty [PDF]

, 1997
A relation between restenosis and arterial lesions resulting from balloon angioplasty has been suggested in literature. Nevertheless, it is unclear to what extent angioplasty-induced arterial wall lesions contribute to the occurrence of restenosis.
