ABSTRACT Incomplete stent apposition at the proximal coronary artery may predispose to subtle guiding catheter–induced stent deformation, creating a gap between the stent and the vessel wall that facilitates inadvertent abluminal guidewire passage. We report a case in which balloon dilatation over an unrecognized abluminal guidewire resulted in severe ...

ABSTRACT Background Acquired aseptic intracardiac communications (AICCs) are rare but clinically relevant structural complications following transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), typically resulting from mechanical injury to the aortic annulus, interventricular septum, or adjacent structures.

ABSTRACT Background Percutaneous treatment of right coronary artery (RCA) ostial lesions is technically challenging due to cardiorespiratory motion. Case Summary We describe a 70‐year‐old man undergoing PCI for an ostial RCA lesion where a forceful cough caused complete stent expansion within the aortic root.

BACKGROUND Stents are placed in the femoropopliteal arteries for numerous reasons, such as atherosclerotic disease, the need for dissection, and perforation of the arteries, and can become stenosed with the passage of time.

Primary percutaneous coronary intervention by drug-eluting balloon angioplasty: The nonrandomized fourth arm of the DEB-AMI (drug-eluting balloon in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction) trial [PDF]
ObjectiveTo evaluate a paclitaxel drug-eluting balloon (DEB) only strategy in primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI), aiming at a comparison with bare metal stent (BMS) alone, DEB followed by BMS, and paclitaxel eluting stent (PES), as ...

Implantable electrochemical sensors for continuous blood monitoring
Implantable electrochemical sensors enable direct, in situ, and continuous blood monitoring, shifting diagnosis from population‐based averages to dynamic, individualized analysis. This review systematically examines the influence of the unique blood properties on sensor design.
