'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.

The optimal treatment of multivessel coronary artery disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The practice of percutaneous coronary intervention has overtaken coronary bypass surgery in the treatment of ischaemic heart disease. Several randomized controlled as well as registry and observational trials have addressed the issue of patient selection

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

open access: yesAdvanced 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 ...

Combination of Laser Atherectomy and Super High-pressure Non-compliant Balloon to Treat Stent Under-expansion in Cases of Failed Interventional Options

open access: yesInterventional Cardiology: Reviews, Research, Resources, 2023
Patients with calcified, fibrotic native coronary vessels with prior suboptimal stenting outcomes are at major risk of stent thrombosis and could face serious consequences if untreated.

Pathogen burden, inflammation, proliferation and apoptosis in human in-stent restenosis - Tissue characteristics compared to primary atherosclerosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
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

“Intrapericardial Approach” for Venous Outflow Reconstruction in Living‐Donor Liver Transplantation for Budd‐Chiari Syndrome: Surgical Techniques and LongTerm Outcomes

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Unlike deceased‐donor liver transplantation, living‐donor liver transplantation (LDLT) for Budd‐Chiari Syndrome (BCS) presents distinctive challenges in hepatic venous (HV)‐outflow reconstruction because diseased HV–inferior vena cava (IVC) cannot be entirely replaced with healthy donor vessels.

Broken coronary stent catheter retrieval percutaneously case report and literature review

open access: yesInternational Journal of the Cardiovascular Academy, 2019
We present a 73-year-old male patient with an unusual complication of a broken coronary stent catheter during percutaneous coronary angioplasty, which was successfully retrieved by balloon trapping and pulling-back method, along with literature review of

Importance of balloon size in coronary angioplasty

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 1989
The effect of balloon size on the success of coronary angioplasty was studied to develop quantitative criteria for optimal selection of balloon size. Coronary dimensions of 165 stenotic lesions were measured by computer-assisted cinevideodensitometry in 120 patients who had undergone angioplasty with a balloon selected by visual estimates.

Complementary multi‐omics profiling of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension reveals immune cell alterations, epigenetic changes, and genetically supported candidate genes

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study presents an integrative multi‐omics framework to uncover the molecular mechanisms and potential biomarkers of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). Anthropometric and biochemical data were correlated using canonical correlation analysis, revealing key cardiometabolic associations. Single‐cell RNA sequencing identified immune

Intraaortic balloon pump support during coronary angioplasty. Initial experience

open access: yesArquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia, 1999
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the use of the intraaortic balloon (IAoB) in association with coronary angioplasty in high-risk patients. METHODS: Fourteen high-risk patients unresponsive to clinical therapy and with formal contraindication to surgical ...
