Abstract Background Coronary artery disease (CAD), the leading cause of death worldwide, is the narrowing of coronary arteries due to atherosclerotic plaque buildup. A common treatment for CAD is percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), often involving stent placement. However, a common complication or in‐stent restenosis (ISR) can occur in 10%–20% of

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.

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.

Carotid Artery Stent Continued Expansion Days After Deployment, Without Post Stent Deployment Angioplasty. [PDF]
This is a carotid artery stent (CAS) case report, which avoids post-stent deployment angioplasty (Post-SDA), with duplex confirmed continued stent expansion at 1, 3 and 30-day post deployment.

Molybdenum (Mo), with its unique strength, uniform corrosion, and radiopacity, enables innovative biodegradable implants for transformative stroke therapy. Abstract Neurovascular implants for stroke intervention face a critical dilemma: permanent devices (e.g., nitinol stents, platinum coils) often trigger chronic inflammation and recurrence, whereas ...

Endovascular retrieval of an entrapped balloon in a tibial artery
Balloon entrapment is a rare complication of angioplasty in calcified or recalcitrant lesions. A 65-year-old man with chronic limb-threatening ischemia underwent balloon angioplasty of his heavily calcified tibial arteries with a low-profile, tapered ...

BACKGROUND Stents are placed in the femoropopliteal arteries for numerous reasons, such as atherosclerotic disease, the need for dissection, and perforation of the arteries, and can become stenosed with the passage of time.

ABSTRACT Background The treatment of coronary bifurcation lesions (CBL) remains complex and associated with a higher rate of long‐term adverse cardiovascular events due to anatomical and procedural complexity. Aims We compared procedural outcomes between a drug coated balloon (DCB) only approach and a 2nd generation drug eluting stent (DES) for ...
