Three‐Year Outcome of Drug Coated Balloon Angioplasty Following Atherectomy for Severely Calcified Coronary Lesions

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We aimed to compare the long‐term efficacy and safety of drug‐coated balloon (DCB) and drug‐eluting stent (DES) following atherectomy for coronary arteries with severely calcified lesions. Of the 258 consecutive patients and 422 de novo lesions treated with DCB at Kanazawa Medical University Hospital, we retrospectively enrolled highly ...

Intravascular Lithotripsy for Coral Reef Aorta and Chronic Mesenteric Ischemia: Case Report and Comprehensive Literature Review

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chronic mesenteric ischemia (CMI) secondary to extensive paravisceral atherosclerosis is a rare but challenging vascular condition, often presenting with postprandial abdominal pain, weight loss, and claudication due to impaired blood flow. While surgical bypass is a standard treatment, it carries significant risks, particularly in patients ...

Successful Revascularization Using Intravascular Ultrasound‐Guided Wiring in Severe Digital Ischemia With Occluded Radial and Ulnar Arteries: A Case Report

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With recent advances in endovascular therapy (EVT), treatment of complex peripheral artery disease, especially below‐the‐knee lesions, has become increasingly feasible using intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)‐guided techniques. However, reports on EVT for critical digital ischemia remain scarce because of its rarity.
