Balloon assisted trapping (BAT) and retrieval of fractured and impacted coronary angioplasty balloon catheter: simple solution to a complex problem [PDF]
Fracture of catheter fragment in a coronary artery during percutaneous coronary angioplasty is a rare complication, which may result into embolization or impaction leading to complete or near complete occlusion of respective territory, arrhythmia, or ...

Background ― Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is a rare life-threatening form of pulmonary artery hypertension. CTEPH is potentially curable by performing surgical operation – pulmonary thrombendarteriectomy. Unfortunately, about 36%

Advances in procedural techniques--antegrade. [PDF]
There have been many technological advances in antegrade CTO PCI, but perhaps most importantly has been the evolution of the "hybrid' approach where ideally there exists a seamless interplay of antegrade wiring, antegrade dissection re-entry and ...

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

Restenosis after directional coronary atherectomy: Differences between primary atheromatoes and restenosls lesions and influence of subintimal tissue resection [PDF]
Rates of restenosis were evaluated in 70 patients (74 lesions) after successful directional coronary atherectomy. The extent of vascular tissue resection was correlated with restenosis rates for coronary (n = 59) and vein bypass graft (n = 15) lesions ...
