Long-term clinical safety and efficacy of drug-eluting stents in real-world patients [PDF]
Since the fi rst balloon angioplasty was performed in the late 1970’s, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has undergone rapid transformation to become an essential treatment option for coronary artery disease as an alternative to surgery.

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 ...

Pathogen burden, inflammation, proliferation and apoptosis in human in-stent restenosis - Tissue characteristics compared to primary atherosclerosis [PDF]
Pathogenic events leading to in-stent restenosis (ISR) are still incompletely understood. Among others, inflammation, immune reactions, deregulated cell death and growth have been suggested. Therefore, atherectomy probes from 21 patients with symptomatic
