Dislocation of a cerebral protection device component during carotid stenting: A case report of favorable outcome from conservative management after failure of retrieval [PDF]
tINTRODUCTION: Cerebral-protection devices (CPDs) are a well-established system for reduction ofembolic risk in carotid artery angioplasty and stenting (CAS).

Atherosclerotic carotid plaque composition: a 3T and 7T MRI-histology correlation study [PDF]
Background and Purpose Carotid artery atherosclerotic plaque composition may influence plaque stability and risk of thromboembolic events, and non-invasive plaque imaging may therefore permit risk stratification for clinical management.

Pulmonary endarterectomy in the management of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is a type of pulmonary hypertension, resulting from fibrotic transformation of pulmonary artery clots causing chronic obstruction in macroscopic pulmonary arteries and associated vascular remodelling ...

Coronary plaque burden predicts perioperative cardiovascular events after coronary endarterectomy
Background and aimsThe risk factors of perioperative and long-term cardiovascular events in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with adjunctive coronary endarterectomy (CE) are not well determined. This study evaluated the clinical

Peri-procedural brain lesions prevention in CAS (3PCAS). Randomized trial comparing CGuard™ stent vs. wallstent [PDF]
Background: Aim of this study was to evaluate peri-procedural incidence of new diffusion-weighted-magneticresonance- imaging (DWMRI) brain lesions in CAS patients treated by carotid mesh stent (CGuard™) or closed-cell stent (Wallstent™).

Long-Term Results of Stenting versus Endarterectomy for Carotid-Artery Stenosis.
BACKGROUND In the Carotid Revascularization Endarterectomy versus Stenting Trial, we found no significant difference between the stenting group and the endarterectomy group with respect to the primary composite end point of stroke, myocardial infarction,

Riociguat for the treatment of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Riociguat, a member of a new class of compounds (soluble guanylate cyclase stimulators), has been shown in previous clinical studies to be beneficial in the treatment of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension. METHODS: In this phase 3,
