Current status of drug-eluting stents

open access: yes, 2011
First-generation drug-eluting stents (DES) with controlled release of sirolimus or paclitaxel from durable polymers compared with bare-metal stents have been consistently shown to reduce the risk of repeat revascularization procedures due to restenosis ...

Balloon‐Stopper Retrieval and Peripheral Parking After Inadvertent Ostial Right Coronary Stent Deployment

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
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.

Trans‐Patch Retrograde Re‐Entry During Hybrid Revascularization of an External Iliac Artery Chronic Total Occlusion: A Technical Note and Review of Re‐Entry Strategies

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Failure of true‐lumen re‐entry after subintimal wire passage is a well‐recognized limitation of endovascular treatment for external iliac artery (EIA) chronic total occlusions (CTO). We report a 73‐year‐old woman with severe limb ischemia and a prior failed endovascular attempt who underwent hybrid left common femoral artery (CFA ...

One‐Year Clinical Outcomes of Paclitaxel‐Coated Balloon Angioplasty in Patients With and Without Acute Coronary Syndrome: The ALLIANCE Registry

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Real‐world data after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) using drug‐coated balloons (DCBs) in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) are limited. Aims We compared 1‐year clinical outcomes after PCI with paclitaxel DCBs between the ACS and non‐ACS patients.

Safety of drug-eluting stents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Drug-eluting stents (DESs) effectively reduce angiographic restenosis and the clinical need for repeat revascularization procedures as compared with bare-metal stents.

Hemodynamic Significance of APEXCT Coronary Angiography Combined With Dynamic CT Myocardial Perfusion Imaging in Assessing Restenosis After Coronary Stenting

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the hemodynamic significance of in‐stent restenosis (ISR) by using a combined anatomical‐functional approach with photon‐counting CT coronary angiography (APEX‐CT CTA) and dynamic CT myocardial perfusion imaging (CT‐MPI). We prospectively enrolled 239 symptomatic patients at least 9 months after PCI.

Coronary drug-eluting stents in diabetic patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
peer reviewedIn diabetic patients, the use of drug-eluting stents (paclitaxel-PES or sirolimus-SES) reduces the risk of restenosis as compared to bare-metal stents.

Evaluating the Local Response of a Novel Injectable Capsule for Drug Delivery in the Trachea

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
A novel PLGA polymer capsule was developed for localized pretracheal drug delivery and evaluated for short‐term local tissue safety in a rabbit model. Implant placement was confirmed by ultrasound and was well tolerated over 14 days, with preservation of airway patency, native tracheal architecture, and biomechanical properties.
