Coronary Artery Vasculopathy in a Cohort of Heart Transplant Recipients: A Single Center Experience

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Coronary allograft vasculopathy (CAV) is a significant cause of late mortality in heart transplant recipients. This study assesses the development of CAV, associated rejection rates, and the potential impact of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on survival in a cohort of heart transplant patients.

Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

New England Journal of Medicine, 2007
Primary PCI refers to mechanical recanalisation of occluded artery with a balloon catheter without prior administration of thrombolytic therapy in acute STEMI. Primary PCI is a very effective method for reestablishing coronary perfusion, with reported rates of TIMI-3 flow about 90%.

Comparison of Procedural and Clinical Outcomes of Angiography‐ Versus Imaging‐Guided Percutaneous Coronary Intervention With Intravascular Lithotripsy

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) is an innovative treatment for coronary artery calcification (CAC). Aims This study aimed to compare procedural and clinical outcomes of intracoronary imaging (ICI)‐guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) versus angiography‐guided PCI with IVL in patients with CAC.

Long‐Term Follow‐Up After Direct‐Flow Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation: A Single Center Experience

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims Valve degeneration after DirectFlow implantation poses a challenge for valve‐in‐valve procedures due to its fragile polymeric structure and embolization risk. This study analyzes long‐term follow‐up of patients who underwent TAVI with DF to understand valve degeneration tendencies.
