A Meta‐Analysis and Simplified Nomenclature for Diagonal Coronary Artery and Ramus Intermedius Across Adult and Pediatric Hearts

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Anatomical descriptions of left‐sided oblique coronary branches remain inconsistent, hindering imaging interpretation and surgical planning. To quantify the prevalence, branching patterns and morphometry of the ramus intermedius (RI) and diagonal branches, and propose a unified nomenclature.

Restenosis after Coronary Stent Implantation: Cellular Mechanisms and Potential of Endothelial Progenitor Cells (A Short Guide for the Interventional Cardiologist)

open access: yesCells, 2022
Coronary stents are among the most common therapies worldwide. Despite significant improvements in the biocompatibility of these devices throughout the last decades, they are prone, in as many as 10–20% of cases, to short- or long-term failure.

Intentional Stent Fracture to Accommodate Growth After Coarctation Stenting in an 860‐g Neonate

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Congenital aortic coarctation in neonates and children can be managed with transcatheter stent implantation, but this approach raises the issue of how to accommodate the fixed stent structure within the growing vessel. Case Summary A 15‐month‐old boy, born prematurely with critical aortic coarctation, was treated at 1 week of age ...

Does lipoprotein (a) level have a predictive value in restenosis after coronary stenting?

open access: yesInternational Journal of Preventive Medicine, 2011
Objectives: Lipid disorders, lipoproteins, diabetes mellitus, and hypertension are the known risk factors for coronary artery diseases; however, their role is unknown in restenosis after coronary stenting.

Acute cardiac inflammatory responses to postischemic reperfusion during cardiopulmonary bypass [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Objectives: The investigation centers on whether there is a reperfusion-induced specific cardiac inflammatory reaction after bypass surgery. Background: Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) leads to systemic inflammation.

Percutaneous Management of Right Ventricular Outflow Tract Obstruction in an Adult Patient After Atrial Switch: A Case for Targeted Infundibular Ablation

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Alcohol septal ablation is a well‐established treatment method for patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. We present a case report of a patient with transposition of the great arteries (TGA) after a Mustard procedure, who developed significant right ventricular outflow tract obstruction (RVOTO), functionally resembling subaortic stenosis ...

Examination of the coatings of coronary stents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In our study the main properties of coated coronary stents are shown, such as foreshortening, recoil, surface features and failures and the expansion properties. The types and the effects of active and passive coatings are introduced.

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

open access: yesCatheterization 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 ...
