A Comparison of a Drug Coated Balloon With Drug Eluting Stent Strategy for Treating Coronary Bifurcation Lesions. [PDF]
Catheter Cardiovasc IntervABSTRACT Background The treatment of coronary bifurcation lesions (CBL) remains complex and associated with a higher rate of long‐term adverse cardiovascular events due to anatomical and procedural complexity. Aims We compared procedural outcomes between a drug coated balloon (DCB) only approach and a 2nd generation drug eluting stent (DES) for ...

Stent thrombosis and drug-eluting stents [PDF]
Journal of Cardiology, 2011 Coronary stents have been used for the treatment of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD), and significantly improved procedural safety and are associated with a lower rate of restenosis compared with balloon angioplasty alone. Drug-eluting stents (DES) have been dominant for the treatment of CAD with efficacy in significantly reducing both ...
