Left Main Stem Perforation: Management Strategies in a Potentially Catastrophic Event

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Left main stem coronary perforation is a potentially fatal complication of percutaneous coronary intervention if not recognized early and treated emergently. Treating left main stem perforation can be challenging due to the significant hemodynamic effect of one of the important steps, namely balloon tamponade.

Unveiling the Microvasculature: The Index of Microcirculatory Resistance and Its Expanding Role in Cardiovascular Care

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR) is a cutting‐edge, wire‐based tool that advances the capability assessment of coronary microvascular function. By utilizing distal coronary pressure and mean transit time under maximal hyperemia, IMR delivers consistent, reproducible insights into the microvasculature's dynamic health.

Echocardiography‐Assisted Stenting of the Ductus Venosus in Infracardiac TAPVC: Report of a New Technique and Review of the Literature

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neonates with infracardiac total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) frequently require urgent treatment. If surgical repair is contraindicated due to extreme prematurity, interventional stenting of the ductus venosus (DV) has been introduced successfully to postpone surgery.

Transcatheter closure of Ventricular Septal defects in Malta : initial experience [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Ventricular septal defects (VSD) consist of deficiencies of the wall separating the two ventricles. VSDs are the commonest congenital cardiac defects. Small VSDs rarely require intervention, however, larger defects cause ventricular volume overload with ...

Two Central Nervous System Tumors in One Catheter Lab: Time to Rethink Radiation Protection

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Very little research has been done on the possible effects that repeated, frequent, and low‐dose ionizing radiation exposure has on the long‐term health of interventional cardiologists. Aims Following the diagnosis in the same year of two central nervous system tumors in two operators working in the same catheter laboratory, we ...

Isolated right pulmonary artery discontinuity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Unilateral “absence” of the pulmonary artery is an uncommon malformation frequently associated with congenital heart disease. In fact, the pulmonary artery is typically discontinuous from the main pulmonary artery, not absent.

A prospective randomized trial of outpatient versus inpatient cardiac catheterization

open access: yes, 2008
To evaluate the safety and cost of outpatient cardiac catheterization, we conducted a randomized trial at three hospitals of outpatient (n = 192) as compared with inpatient (n = 189) cardiac catheterization in low-risk patients.

Feasibility and Safety of Distal Transradial Access in Patients With Out‐of‐Hospital Cardiac Arrest Undergoing Emergency PCI: A Single‐Center Retrospective Study

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Distal transradial access (dTRA) has gained attention for its lower risk of vascular complications compared to conventional transradial access (TRA). However, its feasibility and safety in patients with out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) undergoing emergency percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remain uncertain.
