Age and Phenotype of Patients With Plaque Erosion [PDF]
Background A recent study reported that the outcome of patients with plaque erosion treated with stenting is poor when the underlying plaque is lipid rich.

Recurrent Plaque Erosion in a Young Patient
Plaque erosion is one of the important mechanisms of acute coronary syndromes. We report the first case of recurrent plaque erosion in a different vessel 9 years after the initial episode.

Identification of the haemodynamic environment permissive for plaque erosion [PDF]
Endothelial erosion of atherosclerotic plaques is the underlying cause of approximately 30% of acute coronary syndromes (ACS). As the vascular endothelium is profoundly affected by the haemodynamic environment to which it is exposed, we employed ...

Plaque Erosion: A Distinctive Pathological Mechanism of Acute Coronary Syndrome [PDF]
Plaque erosion (PE) is one of the most important pathological mechanisms underlying acute coronary syndrome (ACS). The incidence of PE is being increasingly recognized owing to the development and popularization of intracavitary imaging.

A novel deep learning model for a computed tomography diagnosis of coronary plaque erosion [PDF]
Patients with acute coronary syndromes caused by plaque erosion might be managed conservatively without stenting. Currently, the diagnosis of plaque erosion requires an invasive imaging procedure.

Predictors of Adverse Prognosis in Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome Caused by Plaque Erosion With a Nonstent Strategy [PDF]
Background The EROSION (Effective Anti‐Thrombotic Therapy Without Stenting: Intravascular Optical Coherence Tomography‐Based Management in Plaque Erosion) study demonstrated that antithrombotic therapy without stenting was safe and feasible in selected ...

Platelet biology and function: plaque erosion vs. rupture. [PDF]
The leading cause of heart disease in developed countries is coronary atherosclerosis, which is not simply a result of ageing but a chronic inflammatory process that can lead to acute clinical events upon atherosclerotic plaque rupture or erosion and ...

Coronary Plaque Erosion: Epidemiology, Diagnosis, and Treatment. [PDF]
Plaque erosion (PE), a distinct etiology of acute coronary syndromes (ACSs), is often overshadowed by plaque ruptures (PRs). Concerning its epidemiology, PE has garnered increasing recognition, with recent studies revealing its prevalence to be ...

Clinical and Laboratory Predictors for Plaque Erosion in Patients With Acute Coronary Syndromes [PDF]
Background Plaque erosion is responsible for 25% to 40% of patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS). Recent studies suggest that anti‐thrombotic therapy without stenting may be an option for this subset of patients.
