Usefulness of quantitative and qualitative angiographic lesion morphology, and clinical characteristics in predicting major adverse cardiac events during and after native coronary balloon angioplasty [PDF]

, 1993
Major, adverse cardiac events (death, myocardial infarction, bypass surgery and reintervention) occur in 4 to 7% of all patients undergoing coronary balloon angioplasty. Prospectively collected clinical data, and angiographic quantitative and qualitative

'Miracle stents' - a future without restenosis

McGill 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.

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

Interventional 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.

Intravascular Ultrasound Findings Associated With Hydrodynamic Contrast Recanalization (HDR) of Coronary Chronic Total Occlusions

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Hydrodynamic contrast recanalization (HDR) is a novel technique to facilitate wire crossing during chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). The mechanisms underlying HDR have not been fully described.

Ischemia Modified Albumin levels in patients with Stable Angina Pectoris who underwent Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

Majalah Kardiologi Indonesia, 2007
Background. Ischemia Modified Albumin (IMA) is a biomarker of myocardial ischemia. Blood levels of IMA rise in patients who develop ischemia during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Long-term clinical safety and efficacy of drug-eluting stents in real-world patients [PDF]

, 2011
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.

Coronary Ectasia and ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction Patients: Does Atherosclerosis Influence Periprocedural Management and Long‐Term Prognosis?

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Coronary artery ectasia (CAE) influences procedural outcomes in the context of ST‐elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI); however, its relationship with atherosclerotic coronary artery disease (ACAD) remains unclear. Aims This study aimed to compare clinical and procedural characteristics, as well as outcomes, in patients with ...

Broken coronary stent catheter retrieval percutaneously case report and literature review

International 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

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

, 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

Three‐Year Outcome of Drug Coated Balloon Angioplasty Following Atherectomy for Severely Calcified Coronary Lesions

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We aimed to compare the long‐term efficacy and safety of drug‐coated balloon (DCB) and drug‐eluting stent (DES) following atherectomy for coronary arteries with severely calcified lesions. Of the 258 consecutive patients and 422 de novo lesions treated with DCB at Kanazawa Medical University Hospital, we retrospectively enrolled highly ...
