Cardiac Allograft Vasculopathy: A Focus on Advances in Diagnosis and Management
Methodist DeBakey Cardiovascular JournalCardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) is a type of coronary artery disease unique to heart transplant recipients that can result from chronic rejection of the transplanted heart.

Catheterization 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.

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Backgrounds Accurate stent positioning in aorto‐ostial lesions remains challenging due to complex three‐dimensional anatomy, lack of optimal fluoroscopic projections, and high rates of geographic miss. Stent overhang impairs guide catheter re‐engagement and complicates future revascularization.

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We present the case of a 56‐year‐old male with non‐ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) and a complex thrombotic lesion at the ostial left circumflex artery (LCX), extending into bifurcating marginal branches. Due to the high risk of side branch occlusion, a stentless strategy using thrombus aspiration, the reverse wire technique, and ...
