Assessing the effectiveness of primary angioplasty compared with thrombolysis and its relationship to time delay: a Bayesian evidence synthesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Background: Meta-analyses of trials have shown greater benefits from angioplasty than thrombolysis after an acute myocardial infarction, but the time delay in initiating angioplasty needs to be considered.

Use of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Imaging Angiography to Follow-Up Arterial Remodeling in an Animal Model [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Appropriately sized arteries in small animals may be possible models for studying the remodeling process as occurs after arterial balloon injury in humans. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is able to noninvasively image tissue in vivo.

Preclinical Serial Assessment of Virtual Physiology After Implantation of a Novel Endoluminal Resorbable Fibrillated Scaffold

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The resorbable fibrillated scaffold (RFS) is a novel electrospun, polylactide‐based endoluminal scaffold developed for peripheral arterial applications. Its porous microfibre architecture is intended to support host cell infiltration and vascular restoration.

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

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...

Percutaneous Transaxillary Access for Large‐Bore Cardiovascular Interventions: Evidence, Technique, and Complication Management

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Percutaneous transaxillary access is an established alternative to transfemoral large‐bore arterial access for transcatheter structural heart interventions and mechanical circulatory support (MCS). Although useful for overcoming hostile iliofemoral anatomy and providing prolonged support and patient mobilization in case of MCS, the axillary ...

'Miracle stents' - a future without restenosis

open access: yesMcGill Journal of Medicine, 2020
Over the last three decades, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) technology has revolutionized the field of cardiology. PCI began in the form of balloon angioplasty, and was followed by coronary stenting.

Lotus root‐like appearance in the left anterior descending artery treated with a drug‐coated balloon angioplasty

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, 2022
A lotus root‐like appearance of the coronary artery diagnosed by optical coherence tomography (OCT) is characterized by old coronary thrombi that form small lumen channels.
