ABSTRACT Background Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) is increasingly used to treat coronary artery calcification (CAC). This study aimed to identify clinical and procedural factors associated with IVL treatment success. Methods This retrospective analysis included 454 patients (73 ± 9 years, 75% male) treated with IVL from the multicenter BENELUX‐IVL ...

ABSTRACT Background There is limited evidence on the safety and efficacy of biodegradable‐polymer sirolimus‐eluting ultra‐thin stent (BP‐SES) in patients at high bleeding risk (HBR) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Aims This study aims to evaluate the clinical outcomes of HBR patients treated with BP‐SES and ≤ 30‐day dual ...

ABSTRACT Background Fractional flow reserve (FFR) following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) can be used to evaluate procedural success and to guide stent optimization. Several studies have demonstrated that lower FFR after stent implantation is associated with increased adverse event rates up to 2 years.

ABSTRACT Coronary embolism (CE) is a rare yet significant contributor to acute myocardial infarction (AMI), particularly in younger patients. We report a 42‐year‐old male who experienced an AMI following recent cocaine use. Investigations revealed a left ventricular apical thrombus, identified as the source of a distal embolus occluding the right ...

ABSTRACT The incidence of secondary cardiac malignancies is on the rise due to the aging population. A 63‐year‐old male presented with recurrent chest pain and anterior ST elevations on ECG, leading to primary PCI, but continued to experience chest pain and persistent ST elevation. Cardiac imaging revealed a cardio‐invasive lung malignancy.

ABSTRACT Introduction C‐reactive protein (CRP) is an inflammatory biomarker, implicated in the pathogenesis of atherosclerotic lesion formation, plaque rupture, and coronary thrombosis. The relationship between preprocedural CRP levels and subsequent development of in‐stent restenosis (ISR) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) however remains
