Abstract This case is a rare occurrence of atrial and coronary sinus (CS) lead dislocation 5 years post cardiac resynchronization therapy‐defibrillator (CRT‐D) implantation, thus necessitating a unique approach. The previous lead‐related vein occlusion was dilated with a balloon using methods typically employed in coronary procedures to address ...

Rupture of angioplasty balloons is a recognized complication of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA), occurring in approximately 5-10% of cases. If a rupture occurs, balloon fragments may embolize or cause thrombotic artery occlusion.

Coronary flow velocity reserve after percutaneous interventions is predictive of periprocedural outcome [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Because heterogeneous results have been reported, we assessed coronary flow velocity changes in individuals who underwent percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) and examined their impact on clinical outcome. METHODS AND RESULTS:
