Single versus two-stent strategies for coronary bifurcation lesions: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized trials with long-term follow-up [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background: The majority of coronary bifurcation lesions are treated with a provisional single‐stent strategy rather than an up‐front 2‐stent strategy.

Drug-Eluting Balloon Versus Drug-Eluting Stent for Complex Femoropopliteal Arterial Lesions

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 2019
Drug-eluting technologies improve 12-month angiographic results of femoropopliteal (FP) interventions, but few data on the comparison between drug-coated balloons (DCBs) and drug-eluting stents (DES) are available.The aim of this study was to compare, after balloon pre-dilation, a strategy of DCB followed by provisional self-expanding nitinol bare ...

Treatment of acute occlusion due to intracranial atherosclerosis by angioplasty with ELUTAX “3″ drug-eluting balloon

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Neurosurgery, 2020
Background: Intracranial atherosclerotic disease is an important cause of ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion. The acute management of these occlusions is challenging and associates an important risk of complications, especially when mechanical

Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in the Elderly: Are Drug-coated Balloons the Future? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Balloon angioplasty revolutionised percutaneous treatment for coronary artery disease four decades ago, but vessel-threatening dissections, elastic recoil and restenosis were major drawbacks to an otherwise successful long-lasting intervention ...

Deployable 3D‐Printed Vascular Stent with Surface‐Catalysed Endogenous Nitric Oxide Generation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A deployable 3D‐printed vascular stent was fabricated with surface‐catalyzed endogenous nitric oxide generation, representing a promising new direction for stent development. The stent can be remotely controlled by magnetic force in its compressed state and fully deployed at the target site using an untethered heat source, potentially eliminating the ...

Downstream Panniculitis Secondary to Drug-Eluting Balloon Angioplasty

open access: yesJACC: Cardiovascular Interventions, 2016
A 72-year-old woman with peripheral arterial disease presented with a 5-day history of rest pain of the left lower leg. Nine years earlier, she had undergone left-sided femoropopliteal bypass surgery, with multiple endovascular procedures thereafter.
