A 7‐mm Covered TIPS Reduces Hepatic Encephalopathy Without Increasing Rebleeding in Cirrhotic Patients With Small Liver: A Randomized Study

Liver International, Volume 46, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background/Aims International guidelines recommend initiating transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) placement with an 8‐mm stent. However, there is an evident lack of randomized controlled trials evaluating TIPS diameters < 8 mm in cirrhotic patients with a relatively small liver. The aim of this study was to determine whether 7

Immediate stent recoil in an anastomotic vein graft lesion treated by cutting balloon angioplasty

Revista Portuguesa de Cardiologia, 2013
Saphenous vein graft (SVG) anastomotic lesions can have significant fibromuscular hyperplasia and may be resistant to balloon angioplasty alone. Stents have been used successfully to treat these lesions.

Use of balloon angioplasty for patients with intracranial large atherosclerotic acute ischemic stroke and cerebral cavernous malformation: a case report

Frontiers in Neurology
Thus far, clinical data relating to the treatment of cerebral cavernous malformation (CCM) patients with acute stroke (AIS) are incredibly scare due to the low incidence of CCM.

Evaluating the Clinical Outcomes of Drug-Coated Balloon and Conventional Balloon Angioplasty in the Management of Stent Edge Restenosis

Allied Medical Research Journal, 2023
Background Coronary stenting is frequently complicated by stent edge restenosis (SER), which causes the artery to re-narrow. Drug-eluting stents (DES), plain balloon angioplasty (POBA), conventional balloon angioplasty (CBA), and drug-coated balloons (

Technological Development and Medical Productivity: The Diffusion of Angioplasty in New York State [PDF]

A puzzling feature of many medical innovations is that they simultaneously appear to reduce unit costs and increase total costs. We consider this phenomenon by examining the diffusion of percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) -- a ...

Do excimer laser angioplasty and rotational atherectomy facilitate balloon angioplasty? Implications for lesion-specific coronary intervention [PDF]

, 1996
Objectives. This study sought to determine whether adjunctive balloon angioplasty after rotational atherectomy and excimer laser angioplasty provides better lumen enlargement (“facilitated angioplasty”) than angioplasty alone.Background.

Importance of balloon size in coronary angioplasty [PDF]

, 1989
The effect of balloon size on the success of coronary angioplasty was studied to develop quantitative criteria for optimal selection of balloon size. Coronary dimensions of 165 stenotic lesions were measured by computer-assisted cinevideodensitometry in ...
