Balloon Pulmonary Angioplasty: State of the Art

Interventional Cardiology Review, 2021
Balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) is a novel technique for the treatment of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension. While cardiologists need no introduction to the concept of balloon angioplasty, BPA has its own particular challenges. This article aims to provide the reader with an overview of BPA, starting with an introduction to chronic ...

Is primary angioplasty cost effective in the UK? Results of a comprehensive decision analysis [PDF]

, 2007
Objective: To assess the cost effectiveness of primary angioplasty, compared with medical management with thrombolytic drugs, to achieve reperfusion after acute myocardial infarction ( AMI) from the perspective of the UK NHS.

Randomized comparison of primary stenting and provisional balloon angioplasty guided by flow velocity measurement. [PDF]

, 2000
BACKGROUND: Coronary stenting improves outcomes compared with balloon angioplasty, but it is costly and may have other disadvantages. Limiting stent use to patients with a suboptimal result after angioplasty (provisional angioplasty) may be as effective ...

Treatment of recoarctation: Balloon dilation angioplasty [PDF]

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 1989
Balloon dilation of recoarctation of the aorta was performed 47 times in 44 patients 49 +/- 54 months after surgical repair. The initial operation was performed in the neonatal period in 29 patients (66%). The age at balloon dilation was 4.9 +/- 5.3 years (range 2 months to 20 years) and weight was 18 +/- 15 kg (range 2 to 72).

Rupture of the arterial wall causes deflection in pressure time course during ex vivo balloon angioplasty [PDF]

, 1997
A relation between restenosis and arterial lesions resulting from balloon angioplasty has been suggested in literature. Nevertheless, it is unclear to what extent angioplasty-induced arterial wall lesions contribute to the occurrence of restenosis.

FOXM1 Protects Against Myocardial Ischemia‐Reperfusion Injury in Rodent and Porcine Models by Suppressing MKRN1‐Dependent LKB1 Ubiquitination

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
FOXM1 maintains mitochondrial bioenergetic function by inhibiting MKRN1‐mediated ubiquitination of LKB1 in cardiomyocytes. Loss of FOXM1 in cardiomyocytes results in upregulation of MKRN1, which enhances LKB1 ubiquitination and disrupts AMPK signaling and energy metabolism pathways. Conversely, FOXM1 overexpression preserves mitochondrial bioenergetics

Two‐Stage Treatment for Adult Large Patent Ductus Venosus

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This is the first report of a two‐stage treatment for an adult large PDV involving the first stage surgical angioplasty of the large Arantius' duct and second stage embolization of the formed small Arantius' duct. The two‐stage approach could avoid embolic material migration into the systemic circulation or acute portal hypertension associated with the

A ruptured balloon shaft during an angioplasty

Clinical Case Reports, 2022
AbstractWe report a case of balloon shaft rupture during percutaneous coronary intervention. Although the entrapped balloon was not yet deflated when the complication occurred, we successfully retrieved it percutaneously using a trapping technique.

Influence of the arterial elastic component on the response to balloon angioplasty in femoral arteries of a healthy porcine model

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study evaluates the role of elastin in vascular response 28 days after balloon angioplasty using uncoated and paclitaxel‐coated balloons in a healthy porcine model. The results show higher elastin content in external femoral arteries, which is inversely correlated with vascular injury, inflammation, smooth muscle cell loss, proteoglycan and fibrin

Efficacy of Direct Injection in Occlusive Lesion (DIOL) Fashion for Infrapopliteal and Inframalleolar Chronic Total Occlusions

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Endovascular therapy (EVT) for chronic total occlusions (CTOs) in patients with critical limb‐threatening ischemia (CLTI) remains technically challenging, particularly in infrapopliteal lesions. Direct injection in occlusive lesions (DIOL) fashion is a novel adjunctive strategy that utilizes hydraulic contrast injection through a ...
