ABSTRACT Background Rotational atherectomy (RA) has undergone considerable technical modernization in recent years. This study evaluated whether RA performed in the contemporary era was associated with superior cardiovascular outcomes compared with the traditional era. Aims To compare the clinical characteristics and cardiovascular outcomes of patients

Different definition of microvascular angina [PDF]
AbstractWe sometimes encounter patients with microvascular angina (MVA), a disease characterized by anginal pain without abnormal coronary arteriographic findings or coronary spasm. More than 40 years have passed since MVA was first confirmed. The terms ‘syndrome X’, ‘cardiac syndrome X’ and ‘microvascular dysfunction’ have also been used to describe ...

Fluoroscopic methods of assessment of coronary microvascular dysfunction – a review of literature [PDF]
A large proportion of patients with angina and evidence of myocardial ischemia do not have obstructive coronary disease. One of the main mechanisms of ischemia/angina with non-obstructive coronary arteries is coronary microvascular dysfunction, which is ...

Ischemia with non-obstructive coronary artery disease (INOCA), a common cause of angina, can occur due to coronary vasospasm, microvascular dysfunction, endothelial dysfunction, atherosclerosis or a combination of these mechanisms.

ABSTRACT Background Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) has emerged as an effective technique for modifying heavily calcified coronary plaques, facilitating optimal stent expansion while minimizing procedural complications. However, data on periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI) and infarction (PPMI) following IVL remain scarce.

Microvascular Angina or “Vis a Tergo”
Cannon ([1][1]) has drawn attention to the high prevalence of ischemia-type chest pain with normal coronary angiograms in older women in the CASS (Coronary Artery Surgery Study) and WISE (Women's Ischemia Syndrome Evaluation) studies, and referred to this as microvascular angina.

Background: Cardiac syndrome X (CSX) is linked with changes in microcirculation, without significant changes in main coronary vessels. According to European Society of Cardiology 2013 stable coronary artery disease (CAD) criteria, CSX was replaced by ...

Impaired Flow and Physiology in Coronaries With Anomalous Origin From the Opposite Sinus of Valsalva
ABSTRACT Background Anomalous Aortic Origin of a Coronary Artery (AAOCA) high‐risk anatomical features (intramural segment, acute take‐off angle, slit‐like ostium) cause coronary stenosis leading to myocardial infarction. How these features alter coronary physiology remains unclear.

ABSTRACT Background RFR has shown good aggregate agreement with FFR, including in prior Asian cohorts using intracoronary nicorandil. Where RFR‐FFR disagreement is concentrated relative to the FFR 0.80 decision boundary, and how the two binary thresholds correspond, remain incompletely characterized. Methods In a prospective single‐center registry, 300
