Novel Use of Intravascular Lithotripsy for the Mobilization of an Entrapped Coronary Guidewire in a Heavily Calcified LAD/DB Bifurcation Lesion—A Case Report

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A 64‑year‑old man with a Non–ST‑elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) underwent coronary angiography, which revealed single‑vessel disease with a high‑grade proximal and a severely calcified mid‑LAD lesion just proximal to a diagonal branch (DB). Both the LAD and the DB were wired.

Laser, Rotational, and Orbital Coronary Atherectomy

, 2016
Compared with non-calcified lesions, increased intracoronary calcium deposition leads to a higher incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events, particularly myocardial infarction. They are also associated with a higher frequency of restenosis, target

Directional atherectomy for treatment of restenosis within coronary stents: clinical, angiographic and histologic results [PDF]

, 1992
OBJECTIVES: The safety and long-term results of directional coronary atherectomy in stented coronary arteries were determined. In addition, tissue studies were performed to characterize the development of restenosis.

Emergent Percutaneous Rotational Atherectomy to Bailout Surgical Transapical Aortic Valve Implantation: A Successful Case of Heart Team Turnaround [PDF]

Arquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is an established treatment for severe aortic stenosis (AS) in patients with elevated surgical risk. Concomitant coronary artery disease affects 55-70% of patients with severe AS.

Incidence of Periprocedural Myocardial Injury and Infarction After Intravascular Lithotripsy for Calcified Coronary Artery Stenosis

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) has emerged as an effective technique for modifying heavily calcified coronary plaques, facilitating optimal stent expansion while minimizing procedural complications. However, data on periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI) and infarction (PPMI) following IVL remain scarce.

Intracoronary Lithotripsy in Percutaneous Treatment of Calcific Left Main Coronary Stenoses

JACC: Case Reports, 2019
Adequate plaque preparation in heavily calcific left main coronary stenoses is mandatory to ensure adequate stent implantation. Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) is a potential alternative to atherectomy techniques for this purpose.

Clinical Outcomes After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Patients With Cirrhosis: A Multicentre National Study

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Summary of a multicentre TriNetX study evaluating outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with cirrhosis. Cirrhosis was associated with higher 1‐year gastrointestinal bleeding and mortality, especially with decompensated disease.

Drug‐coated balloons: From conventional designs to next‐generation innovations in vascular therapy

BMEMat, Volume 4, Issue 3, September 2026.
This review traces the evolution of drug‐coated balloons (DCBs) from conventional designs to next‐generation platforms. We highlight innovations in balloon engineering, coating technologies, and therapeutic agents that enhance localized drug delivery while addressing challenges in efficiency, safety, and biocompatibility for vascular and emerging non ...
