Serial Optical Coherence Tomography Assessment of Coronary Atherosclerosis and Long‐Term Clinical Outcomes

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background The impact of high‐risk coronary artery plaques identified using optical coherence tomography on late luminal narrowing and clinical events remains poorly understood. Methods and Results This multicenter prospective study included 176 patients

Mechanical Thrombus Aspiration for a Young STEMI Patient With Plaque Erosion: Time for a Stent‐Free Approach?

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A 34‐year‐old man with no cardiovascular history presented with anterior ST‐elevation myocardial infarction and a large thrombotic occlusion of the mid left anterior descending artery. Following potent antithrombotic therapy and mechanical thrombus aspiration, angiography revealed vessel patency without residual significant stenosis, allowing ...

Consecutive Emergency Carotid Artery Stenting and Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in a Patient With Cardiogenic Shock: A Case Report

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Severe aortic stenosis (AS) carries a poor prognosis when symptomatic, particularly in cardiogenic shock (CS). Emergency transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is rarely performed but may represent a rescue therapy. Coexistent carotid artery stenosis (CAS) further increases procedural risk.

Percutaneous Transaxillary Access for Large‐Bore Cardiovascular Interventions: Evidence, Technique, and Complication Management

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Percutaneous transaxillary access is an established alternative to transfemoral large‐bore arterial access for transcatheter structural heart interventions and mechanical circulatory support (MCS). Although useful for overcoming hostile iliofemoral anatomy and providing prolonged support and patient mobilization in case of MCS, the axillary ...

Calcified Plaque Detachment: Alternative Calcified Plaque Modification After Coronary Intravascular Lithotripsy

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Calcified plaque (CP) detachment (CD) and calcium fracture (CF) can occur following coronary intravascular lithotripsy (IVL). The extent to which CF alone facilitates stent expansion during CP modification with IVL remains unclear. Aims This study aimed to investigate the clinical implications of IVL‐induced CD.

Comparison of Immediate Versus Staged Complete Revascularization in Patients With Index PCI Coronary Complications: A Study on Clinical Outcomes and Predictors of Complications

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background In patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and multivessel disease (MVD), complete revascularization (CR) improves clinical outcomes compared with culprit‐only percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, the optimal timing of CR, immediate (ICR) versus staged (SCR), remains debated.

Association Between Predicting Risk of Cardiovascular Disease Events (PREVENT) Risk Scores and Subclinical Cardiovascular Disease: Insights From the Project Baseline Health Study

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background The American Heart Association Predicting Risk of Cardiovascular Disease Events risk scores estimate cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk, including heart failure (HF) and atherosclerotic CVD (ASCVD) events.

Calcium Distribution Patterns of the Aorta as Predictors of Significant Coronary Artery Disease in Patients with Moderate to Severe Aortic Stenosis

Biomedical Sciences and Clinical Medicine
OBJECTIVE Computed tomography (CT) of the aortic valve and aorta has gained a greater role in planning for aortic valve replacement (AVR). However, when AVR is planned, invasive coronary angiography remains the standard investigation.
