Accurate and Safe Directional Coronary Atherectomy Using the X‐Ray Detector's Calculated Optimal Angular View

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Directional coronary atherectomy (DCA) is effective for bifurcation lesions but carries a risk of coronary perforation, due to geographical and recognition errors during the procedure. Geographical errors involve incorrect targeting of plaque‐free areas, whereas recognition errors stem from the misinterpretation of visual ...

A Rare Case of Nitroglycerin Resistant Coronary Arterial Vasospasm During Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Coronary artery vasospasm following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is a rare but potentially life‐threatening complication that can lead to myocardial ischemia, arrhythmias, and cardiogenic shock. Nitroglycerin‐resistant vasospasm, particularly involving the left main coronary artery (LMCA), poses significant diagnostic and ...

Use of ReCross to Increase Success Rate With Antegrade CTO PCI—A Multicenter Observational Study

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Antegrade approach remains one of the predominant techniques for CTO PCI. Success rates have increased significantly recently due to advancements in devices and strategies, along with the hybrid algorithm. ReCross is a uniquely modified microcatheter with two over‐the‐wire lumens and three exit ports, offering significant potential ...

Pressure‐Wire Guided Hybrid Branch Pulmonary Artery Band Placement for Palliation of Single Ventricle and Critical Congenital Cardiac Lesions

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Historically, bilateral pulmonary artery band (PAB) placement was guided by pulmonary blood flow surrogates including systemic blood pressure (BP) and arterial saturation. These metrics alone may result in suboptimal bPAB placement.
