Effect of coarctation of aorta anatomy and balloon profile on the outcome of balloon angioplasty in infantile coarctation

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2021
Objective Coarctation of the Aorta (CoA) is a relatively common cardiovascular disorder. The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of COA anatomy and high versus low-pressure balloons on the outcome of balloon angioplasty among neonates and infants.

Head-to-head comparison of sirolimus- versus paclitaxel-coated balloon angioplasty in the femoropopliteal artery: study protocol for the randomized controlled SIRONA trial

Trials, 2021
Background Endovascular revascularization has established as the first-line therapy of femoropopliteal artery disease. Paclitaxel-coated balloon angioplasty proved to be superior to plain old balloon angioplasty (POBA) regarding prevention of restenosis ...

Comparison of Primary Patency Rate between Drug- Coated Balloon and Plain Balloon Angioplasty in Hemodialysis Access

Siriraj Medical Journal, 2022
Objective: Hemodialysis adequacy in end-stage renal disease patients plays a crucial role in their quality of life. Repeated stenosis at the anastomotic site of arteriovenous fistula and synthetic arteriovenous graft are a major cause of access failure ...

Randomized comparison of primary stenting and provisional balloon angioplasty guided by flow velocity measurement. [PDF]

, 2000
BACKGROUND: Coronary stenting improves outcomes compared with balloon angioplasty, but it is costly and may have other disadvantages. Limiting stent use to patients with a suboptimal result after angioplasty (provisional angioplasty) may be as effective ...

Rupture of the arterial wall causes deflection in pressure time course during ex vivo balloon angioplasty [PDF]

, 1997
A relation between restenosis and arterial lesions resulting from balloon angioplasty has been suggested in literature. Nevertheless, it is unclear to what extent angioplasty-induced arterial wall lesions contribute to the occurrence of restenosis.

Use of the perforated balloon catheter to infuse marker substances into diseased coronary artery walls after experimental postmortem angioplasty [PDF]

, 1991
A perforated balloon catheter was used in human coronary arteries after postmortem angioplasty had been performed. The catheter used has a standard angioplasty balloon with a pattern of laser-produced holes, 25 μm in size, which generate streams of fluid
