Bench Testing Analysis of Perforation Management in the Setting of Bifurcation Coronary Intervention

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Management of coronary perforation in bifurcation lesions with covered stents remains challenging. Aims We aimed to describe a proper practice and toolbox for “jailed‐branch” management after covered stent deployment. Methods Using a bench model, we tested various wires with a 120° angulated microcatheter for their ability to ...

Endovascular Stenting for Pulmonary Vein Stenosis Following Atrial Fibrillation Ablation: From Diagnosis to Intervention

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS) is an uncommon but serious complication of atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation, often misinterpreted as primary pulmonary disease. Timely identification is essential to prevent irreversible injury and to guide appropriate referral for interventional management. Case Presentations Through the discussion of

A Prospective, Multicenter, Open Label Study Investigating the Implementation of a Standardized Algorithm for Coronary CaLcificatiOn With PlaquE Modification Using UltraSound Guidance to Improve Procedural and Clinical Outcomes (CYCLOPES): Design and Rationale of the CYCLOPES Trial

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Moderate‐to‐severe calcification is present in ~20%–30% of patients undergoing coronary angiography. Coronary lesion modification is often necessary to facilitate optimal stent delivery and expansion, with several dedicated devices now approved for calcium modification before stent implantation. The CYCLOPES study aims to evaluate
