Cardiovascular Diabetology, 2022 AbstractRestenosis, defined as the re-narrowing of an arterial lumen after revascularization, represents an increasingly important issue in clinical practice. Indeed, as the number of stent placements has risen to an estimate that exceeds 3 million annually worldwide, revascularization procedures have become much more common. Several investigators have

Cardiovascular Therapeutics, 2010 The introduction of coronary stents marked a major turning point in the practice of interventional cardiology. Whereas the efficacy of balloon angioplasty was challenged both by immediate mechanical complications and by a high incidence of restenosis, coronary stents offered cardiologists a means by which to not only augment immediate procedural ...

Restenosis begets restenosis: implications for stent selection [PDF]
Netherlands Heart Journal, 2008 Identifying the risk for restenosis is of critical importance in the stent selection process of patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Therefore, we sought to determine if a history of clinical recurrence (CR) after PCI increases the risk of CR after treatment of a de novo lesion in another coronary artery.We retrospectively ...

Endothelin and restenosis [PDF]
Cardiovascular Research, 1998 Time for primary review 31 days Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTCA) was first introduced into the therapy of patients with coronary artery stenosis in the late seventies [1]. In the two decades since, this method has become standard therapy for patients suffering from all forms of coronary artery disease.

International Journal of Vascular Medicine, 2012 The vascular disease involves imbalanced function of the blood vessels. Risk factors playing a role in development of impaired vessel functions will be briefly discussed. In ischemia/reperfusion (I/R), ischemic hypoxia is one of the cardinal risk factors of restenosis. Various insults are shown to initiate the phenotype switch of VSMCs.

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2000 Restenosis is currently the major limitation of percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA). Factors such as elastic recoil, migration of vascular smooth muscle cells from media to intima, neointimal proliferation and vascular remodeling underly the restenotic process. Presently there is no effective therapy available for restenosis. The role

Cryoplasty for Arterial Restenosis [PDF]
European Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, 2007 A prospective follow-up study of patients with arterial restenosis undergoing cryoplasty.Between May 2004 and June 2005, 10 patients with restenosis following ilio-femoral endovascular treatment underwent twelve cryoplasty procedures. All patients had had at least one previous episode of stenosis treated by conventional endovascular methods and had ...

Circulation: Cardiovascular Interventions, 2011 In the past decade, tremendous progress has been made in reducing the incidence of restenosis with the advent of the drug-eluting stent (DES). With “plain old balloon angioplasty,” rates of acute and chronic vessel occlusion were unacceptably high at ≈30% to 60%, secondary to acute and chronic recoil and constrictive remodeling.

Local Therapy for Restenosis [PDF]
European Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, 2005 The durability of all forms of open or percutaneous revascularisation is affected by the development of localised stenoses within the bypass graft or at the site of endarterectomy, stent or angioplasty. The reported incidence of significant restenosis has varied dependent on initial procedure, site, case mix and definition, but is greatest during the ...
