Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty
Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 1985 Dotter and Judkins (1) in 1964 reported the use of coaxial dilating catheters in remodeling the lumen of obstructed peripheral arteries. In Zurich in 1977 Griintzig (2) reported the first transcutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty using a system for mechanically dilating a stenosed epicar• dial artery.

Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty
The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 1984 Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty appears to be an effective alternative to coronary artery bypass surgery in patients whose coronary artery anatomy is suitable--that is, an individual with single (or, at most, double) vessel coronary artery disease whose stenoses are proximal, discrete, subtotal, concentric and noncalcified.

Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty [PDF]
Acta Radiologica, 1989 In a six-year period (1982–1987), 248 patients were treated with 297 procedures (percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty, PTCA) on 282 vessels. Two hundred and fifty-nine (87.2%) of the procedures in 210 (76.7%) of the patients appeared successful angiographically. Thirty-eight procedures were unsuccessful due to failure to pass the stenosis in

Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty
American Journal of Roentgenology, 1980 Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty, first performed in man in 1977, has been used increasingly in selected patients with angina pectoris due to coronary atherosclerosis. Patients with single-vessel coronary artery disease in whom the stenosis is relatively proximal, noncalcified, discrete, and tapered rather than eccentric are the best ...

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS) is an uncommon but serious complication of atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation, often misinterpreted as primary pulmonary disease. Timely identification is essential to prevent irreversible injury and to guide appropriate referral for interventional management. Case Presentations Through the discussion of
