Paclitaxel‐Coated Balloons for Femoropopliteal Artery Disease Treatment in French Patients: A Longitudinal Observational Study [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Clinical studies have demonstrated the safety and effectiveness of drug‐coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty for femoropopliteal revascularization. Long‐term studies in routine practice are limited. Aims The aim of this study was to assess long‐term outcomes after DCB angioplasty for femoropopliteal peripheral artery disease in a real ...

Accidental Stent Extraction Following a Rescue Manipulation to Retrieve a Lost Coronary Guidewire: A Very Rare Complication [PDF]
ABSTRACT We present a complex angioplasty case in which a coronary guidewire became trapped between a calcified nodule and a newly implanted stent, leading to wire rupture and subsequent accidental stent extraction. This case underscores the importance of intracoronary imaging and highlights the potential procedural challenges and rare complications in
