Immediate stent recoil in an anastomotic vein graft lesion treated by cutting balloon angioplasty
Saphenous vein graft (SVG) anastomotic lesions can have significant fibromuscular hyperplasia and may be resistant to balloon angioplasty alone. Stents have been used successfully to treat these lesions.

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Elevated blood glucose levels in diabetes and prediabetes contribute to vascular inflammation and may increase the risk of major adverse cardiac events (MACE). We sought to evaluate the association between different glycemic statuses and 12‐month MACE in patients undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI ...
