Kissing balloon coronary angioplasty

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1984
Balloon angioplasty of stenoses involving a bifurcation of coronary arteries carries a significant risk of permanent occlusion of I of the branches. 1 Kissing balloon angioplasty was first described for aortoplasty in the Leriche syndrome. 2 In 1981, Gruentzig introduced it into coronary angioplasty.

Ultrasonic angioplasty balloon catheter

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1997
An angioplasty balloon catheter particularly adapted for ablation of a stenosis in vivo has a balloon which may be inflated with a conductive contrast fluid injected proximally to the balloon, and is furthermore metalized on the outside of the balloon and catheter shaft.

Balloon angioplasty for an unusual aortic coarctation

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Diagnosis, 1998
Percutaneous balloon angioplasty is an alternative therapy for the treatment of the typical type of coarctation. Its associated morbidity and mortality compares favorably when compared to the standard treatment surgery. While atypical coarctations are rare, the described cases have been treated surgically.

Vascular miRNAs After Balloon Angioplasty

Trends in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2013
MicroRNAs (miRs) are small non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression through translational repression or degradation of the target mRNA. Available strategies to improve stent patency lead to the risk of potential stent thrombosis. Modulation of miRs could be a promising means of reducing VSMC proliferation while increasing endothelial regeneration ...

Promising efficacy of primary gradual and prolonged balloon angioplasty in small coronary arteries: a randomized comparison with cutting balloon angioplasty and conventional balloon angioplasty

American Heart Journal, 2004
Small vessel size represents a critical risk factor for an adverse outcome after both conventional balloon angioplasty (POBA) and stenting. Gradual and prolonged balloon angioplasty (GPBA) has been shown to cause less arterial trauma, which results in higher procedural success rates and fewer in-hospital complications than POBA.

Catheter Intervention: Balloon Angioplasty

2000
Dotter and Judkins first described transluminal angioplasty in 1964 (1). Using a surgical cutdown, they introduced solid cylindrical dilators of sequentially increasing diameters to enlarge the vessel lumen of iliac and femoral arteries. Ten years later Gruentzig (2) successfully applied Dotter’s concept to a percutaneously placed inflatable ...
