FLEXIBILITY TEST OF THE TOOLS OF ANGIOPLASTY

Acta Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2016
Coronary angioplasty is a procedure used to treat the narrowed coronary arteries. Physicians operate with many different tools during the intervention, the main devices are the following: guidewires, guiding catheters, balloon catheters and stents.

A Rare and Serious Unforeseen Complication of Cutting Balloon Angioplasty

Case Reports in Cardiology, 2014
Cutting balloon angioplasty (CBA) is one of the adept ways of treating “in-stent restenosis.” Various complications related to cutting balloon angioplasty have been reported including arterial rupture, delayed perforation and fracture of microsurgical ...

Novel use of cutting balloon to manage compressive subintimal hematoma during left main stenting in a patient with spontaneous coronary artery dissection

Clinical Case Reports, 2018
Key Clinical Message Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is a common cause of acute coronary syndrome particularly in younger women. Good outcomes with conservative management are generally expected.

Drug‐Coated Balloons Versus Drug‐Eluting Stents or Plain Old Balloon Angioplasty: A Long‐Term in‐Stent Restenosis Study

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background Balloon angioplasty with drug‐coated balloons (DCBs) is frequently used during percutaneous coronary intervention for in‐stent restenosis. Despite its frequent use, there is a lack of long‐term data on the efficacy of DCB angioplasty.

Entrapped inflated coronary balloon with a disrupted shaft

IHJ Cardiovascular Case Reports, 2021
Entrapment of an undeflatable angioplasty balloon is a rare yet fatal complication of modern percutaneous coronary intervention that can lead to fatal sequelae such as myocardial infarction and life-threatening arrhythmia.

Prolonged versus brief balloon inflation during arterial angioplasty for de novo atherosclerotic disease: a systematic review and meta-analysis

CVIR Endovascular, 2019
Objective Angioplasty is a fundamental treatment for atherosclerotic disease and may be performed as the sole therapy in small vessel disease. However, the ideal duration of balloon inflation has not yet been identified.

POT-sideDCB-POT: A novel technique for treating coronary bifurcation lesions

Hellenic Journal of Cardiology, 2021
The rePOT technique is a novel and easily applied approach for coronary bifurcations. Drug-Coated Balloon (DCB) angioplasty is increasingly being utilized in management of small vessels and coronary bifurcation lesions.

Angioscopy after laser and balloon coronary angioplasty

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 1994
Percutaneous intracoronary angioscopy was used to study the morphologic changes occurring in coronary arteries after balloon or laser angioplasty.Angioscopy is thought to provide details of the coronary vessel lumen and the inner wall.Coronary lesions were studied in 44 patients with a 4.5F Imagecath angioscope before and after each interventional ...

Mechanically Robust Biodegradable Stents With Theragenerative Vascular Responses via Combined 3D Printing and Janus Nanoengineering

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work introduces a theragenerative 3D‐printed biodegradable stent with Janus nanoarchitecture for spatially controlled vascular healing. A luminal tantalum ion–implanted surface accelerates endothelialization and hemocompatibility, while an abluminal sirolimus/poly‐L‐lactic acid–tantalum layer provides sustained drug release and suppresses smooth ...

Balloon Angioplasty - The Legacy of Andreas Grüntzig, M.D. (1939-1985)

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2014
In 1974, at the Medical Policlinic of the University of Zürich, German-born physician-scientist Andreas Grüntzig (1939-1985) successfully applied a balloon-tipped catheter to re-open a severely stenosed femoral artery, a procedure which he initially ...
