Randomised trial of excimer laser angioplasty versus balloon angioplasty for treatment of obstructive coronary artery disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
BACKGROUND: Excimer laser coronary angioplasty is reported to give excellent procedural results for treatment of complex coronary lesions, but this method has not been compared with balloon angioplasty in a randomised trial.

Feasibility and Safety of Distal Transradial Access in Patients With Out‐of‐Hospital Cardiac Arrest Undergoing Emergency PCI: A Single‐Center Retrospective Study

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Distal transradial access (dTRA) has gained attention for its lower risk of vascular complications compared to conventional transradial access (TRA). However, its feasibility and safety in patients with out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) undergoing emergency percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remain uncertain.

Role of Neuroimaging Before Coronary Angiography in Patients With Out‐of‐Hospital Cardiac Arrest

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patients presenting following out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest (OOHCA) often require emergency coronary angiography. Presentations can be associated with syncope or head‐trauma. Aims We investigated the impact and utility of pre‐coronary angiography CT‐Brain (CT‐B) in patients following OOHCA on clinical outcomes.

Staged angioplasty using a full-length balloon catheter to achieve maturation of arteriovenous fistulas [PDF]

open access: yes
PURPOSE: To evaluate the efficacy of staged full-length balloon-assisted maturation (BAM) for the maturation of arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) on entire segmental veins, including stenosis, causing primary AVF failure.

A Modified Technique for Converting Retrograde Femoral Artery Access to Antegrade Access With the Assistance of a Long Sheath

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Percutaneous femoral access serves as the cornerstone of endovascular therapy of lower extremity arterial disease. In complex cases, the arterial disease of lower extremity are involve in ipsilateral iliac artery pathology, which conventional treatment strategies typically require multiple punctures or staged procedures.

Balloon Angioplasty for Symptomatic Intracranial Artery Stenosis (BASIS): protocol of a prospective, multicentre, randomised, controlled trial

open access: yesStroke and Vascular Neurology
Background The superiority of balloon angioplasty plus aggressive medical management (AMM) to AMM alone for symptomatic intracranial artery stenosis (sICAS) on efficacy and safety profiles still lacks evidence from randomised controlled trials (RCTs).Aim

Cephalic arch stenosis in autologous hemodialysis fistula; to stent or not to stent? Long-term follow up

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine, 2022
Background A retrospective study of 44 patients with autologous arteriovenous fistula (AVF) presenting with cephalic arch stenosis was carried out. The aim is to assess the effectiveness of angioplasty and stenting in cephalic arch stenosis in autologous
