Balloon angioplasty by vascular surgeons

The American Journal of Surgery, 1997
Endovascular treatment of arterial disease of the lower extremity is performed by radiologists, cardiologists, and some vascular surgeons. This retrospective review was performed to measure complications and success rates in patients with extensive occlusive disease treated by vascular surgeons.Balloon angioplasties were performed on 336 vascular ...

Laser balloon angioplasty.

Critical reviews in biomedical engineering, 1992
Unlike conventional transluminal percutaneous angioplasty (PTCA), which applies only intraluminal pressure, laser balloon angioplasty (LBA) employs simultaneous heat and pressure to reopen heavily occluded arterial lumens. The circumferential irradiation of Nd:YAG (1.06 microns) laser light is directly absorbed by approximately 1 to 2 mm of arterial ...

Cutting Balloon Angioplasty

2003
Conventional balloon angioplasty restores coronary blood flow at the expense of some degree of arterial wall injury. The occurrence and degree of vessel wall injury is unpredictable and, in a proportion of cases, results in the complications associated with conventional percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA).

Laser Balloon Angioplasty

1995
Laser balloon angioplasty (LBA) is presented as an example of a potential therapy based on thermal alterations of tissue by laser. Its future acceptance as a full clinical modality depends significantly on how its efficacy, advantages, and limitations compare with the current alternative angioplasty techniques described in Section 24.2.

Balloon angioplasty for cerebrovascular disease

Neurological Research, 1992
Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) has become an established treatment for peripheral, renal and coronary vascular disease, where the success rate approaches 90% with complications occurring in less than 5% of patients. There has been a reluctance to recommend PTA of the internal carotid artery (ICA) because of concern about the risks of ...

Cutting balloon angioplasty.

The Journal of invasive cardiology, 2002
The Cutting Balloon is a unique angioplasty device used in percutaneous coronary interventions. The advantage of the Cutting Balloon is its ability to reduce vessel stretch and vessel injury by scoring the vessel longitudinally rather than causing an uncontrolled disruption of the atherosclerotic plaque.
