Successful cutting balloon angioplasty in a child with resistant renal artery stenosis [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Although renovascular hypertension is a rare disease, it is associated with 5–10 % of cases of childhood hypertension. It is a potentially treatable cause of hypertension, and is often caused by renal artery stenosis (RAS).

In chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH), stenoses or obstructions of the pulmonary arteries due to organized thrombi can cause an elevation in pulmonary artery resistance, which in turn can result in pulmonary hypertension.

A Parameterized Cross‐Sectional Model for Simulating Balloon Angioplasty in Atherosclerotic Arteries
The parameterized cross‐sectional model allows assessment of the effect of geometric variability in iliac atherosclerotic arteries during angioplasty balloon inflation. The size of the lipid pool and the thickness of the fibrous cap primarily control, respectively, the magnitude and location of the maximum principal stress in the artery.

Comparison of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt with covered stent and balloon-occluded retrograde transvenous obliteration in managing isolated gastric varices [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: Although a transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) is commonly placed to manage isolated gastric varices, balloon-occluded retrograde transvenous obliteration (BRTO) has also been used. We compare the long-term outcomes from these

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Treatment of drug‐eluting stents (DES) in‐stent restenosis (ISR) was challenging. Neoatherosclerosis (NA) occurs earlier and more frequently in DES‐ISR. This study aims to analyze the effect of neoatheroma morphology and intervention‐associated neoatheroma intima rupture on intervention strategies and clinical outcomes in ...
