Novel Use of Intravascular Lithotripsy for the Mobilization of an Entrapped Coronary Guidewire in a Heavily Calcified LAD/DB Bifurcation Lesion—A Case Report

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A 64‑year‑old man with a Non–ST‑elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) underwent coronary angiography, which revealed single‑vessel disease with a high‑grade proximal and a severely calcified mid‑LAD lesion just proximal to a diagonal branch (DB). Both the LAD and the DB were wired.

Comparison of STEMI and NSTEMI patients in the emergency department [PDF]

, 2011
IntroductionAcute myocardial infarction (MI) significantly contributes to mortality and morbidity in developed and developing countries. ECG can readily diagnose ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) to allow myocardium-saving interventions; however,

The Relationship Between SYNTAX II Score and Serum Pleiotrophin Level in Patients with Non-ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction

International Journal of the Cardiovascular Academy, 2023
Background and Aim: In this study, we aimed to examine the relationship between serum pleiotrophin (PTH) levels at admission and the severity of coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients experiencing non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI)

Incidence of Periprocedural Myocardial Injury and Infarction After Intravascular Lithotripsy for Calcified Coronary Artery Stenosis

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
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.

Five‐Year Clinical Outcomes of Biodegradable Versus Durable Polymer Drug‐Eluting Stents: A Propensity Score‐Matched Analysis of 4394 Patients

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Biodegradable‐polymer (BP) drug‐eluting stents (DES) were developed to mitigate potential late adverse events related to persistent durable polymers in durable‐polymer (DP) DES; however, contemporary long‐term real‐world comparative data remain limited. Aims We aimed to compare the 5‐year clinical outcomes of contemporary BP‐DES and

Sinoatrial Nodal Artery Arising from the Right Posterolateral Artery: A Rare Anatomical Variant

Methodist DeBakey Cardiovascular Journal, 2022
We discuss a case report of a 66-year-old male with no prior cardiac history who presented to the hospital with persistent hiccups and shortness of breath. Following a positive nuclear stress test and cardiac catheterization, a rare anatomical variant of

When Subtle Guiding Catheter‐Induced Stent Deformation Leads to Abluminal Guidewire Passage: Successful IVUS Tip‐Detection‐Guided Bailout

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Incomplete stent apposition at the proximal coronary artery may predispose to subtle guiding catheter–induced stent deformation, creating a gap between the stent and the vessel wall that facilitates inadvertent abluminal guidewire passage. We report a case in which balloon dilatation over an unrecognized abluminal guidewire resulted in severe ...

Survival After MI in a Community Cohort Study: Contribution of Comorbidities in NSTEMI [PDF]

, 2018
Background: Non–ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) comprises the majority of MI worldwide, yet mortality remains high. Management of NSTEMI is relatively delayed and heterogeneous compared with the “time is muscle” approach to ST-segment
