Computational fluid dynamicaccuracy in mimicking changes in blood hemodynamics in patients with acute type IIIb aortic dissection treated with TEVAR [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background: We aimed to verify the accuracy of the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) algorithm for blood flow reconstruction for type IIIb aortic dissection (TBAD) before and after thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR).

Three cases of fusion imaging in endovascular treatment of occlusive peripheral artery disease

open access: yesJournal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2019
Endovascular treatment of peripheral artery disease has dramatically improved in the past decades; however, occlusive or stenotic lesions of the femoral-popliteal artery segment remain a significant challenge for vascular specialists.

Intravascular Lithotripsy Is Associated With Superior Clinical Outcomes Compared to Atherectomy: A Large‐Scale, Propensity‐Matched Analysis

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Coronary artery disease (CAD) with severe calcification remains a growing challenge in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Atherectomy (ATH) has long been used for plaque modification, whereas intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) has emerged as a promising alternative. Large‐scale comparative data on long‐term outcomes are limited.

Predicting Coronary Occlusion Risk during Redo‐TAVR at First TAVR: Asymmetric Calcification Causes Failure

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Predicting coronary artery occlusion due to sinus sequestration (SS) during a second transcatheter aortic valve (TAV) procedure using pre‐procedural computed tomography (CT) after the first TAV replacement (TAVR) is underreported.

Direct Puncture of Calcified Plaque Using a Percutaneous Transcholangiography Needle in Endovascular Treatment for Superficial Femoral Artery Chronic Total Occlusion: A Case Report

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Endovascular treatment (EVT) for chronic total occlusion (CTO) lesions has progressed recently; however, severely calcified lesions remain difficult to treat owing to challenges in guidewire passage and limited balloon or stent expansion. We report the case of a 79‐year‐old Asian male with intermittent claudication who had previously undergone

Long‐Term Impact of Prosthesis‐Patient Mismatch After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in Patients With Small Aortic Annuli

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Prosthesis‐patient mismatch (PPM) remains common following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and is associated with worse clinical outcomes. PPM is of particular concern in small aortic annuli (SAA). Aims To compare the incidence, predictors, and long‐term impact of PPM in SAA TAVR.

What went wrong? The flawed concept of cerebrospinal venous insufficiency [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In 2006, Zamboni reintroduced the concept that chronic impaired venous outflow of the central nervous system is associated with multiple sclerosis (MS), coining the term of chronic cerebrospinal venous insufficiency ('CCSVI'). The diagnosis of 'CCSVI' is

Endovascular Repair of Aortobronchial Fistula due to Saccular Aneurysm of Thoracic Aorta

open access: yesCase Reports in Vascular Medicine, 2017
Aortobronchial fistula (ABF) is a rare condition which can be lethal if left untreated. Open surgical treatment carries high morbidity and mortality. Recent advances in endovascular technology have made thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) the ...

Plaque Morphology‐Dependent Regression of Tandem Coronary Plaques Under Intensive Lipid‐Lowering Therapy

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We report a 54‐year‐old woman with stable angina who exhibited heterogeneous responses of tandem left anterior descending artery (LAD) plaques to intensive lipid‐lowering therapy. Coronary CT angiography performed at another hospital suggested diffuse disease, and she presented to our clinic for a second opinion.
