Implantation of paclitaxel-eluting stents in saphenous vein grafts: clinical and angiographic follow-up results from a multicentre study. [PDF]
Objective: To define the clinical and angiographic follow-up results after implantation of paclitaxel-eluting stents (PESs) in stenotic saphenous vein grafts (SVGs). Design: Prospective multicentre study. Comparison with a control group.

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.

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
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
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 ...

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

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