Randomized Trial of Stent versus Surgery for Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis.

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2016
BACKGROUND Previous clinical trials have suggested that carotid-artery stenting with a device to capture and remove emboli ("embolic protection") is an effective alternative to carotid endarterectomy in patients at average or high risk for surgical ...

Outcome of Wingspan Stent Using Aggressive Post-stent Balloon Dilation for Intracranial Atherosclerosis Stenosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2021
Background: Wingspan stent has gained interest for better long-term outcomes for intracranial atherosclerosis disease (ICAD). However, in-stent restenosis still presents as a problem and may cause postoperative neurological events. We aimed to find a way

Which spring is the best? Comparison of methods for virtual stenting. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This paper presents a methodology for modeling the deployment of implantable devices used in minimally invasive vascular interventions. Motivated by the clinical need to perform preinterventional rehearsals of a stent deployment, we have developed ...

AFM-Based Characterization Method of Capacitive MEMS Pressure Sensors for Cardiological Applications

open access: yesMicromachines, 2018
Current CMOS-micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) fabrication technologies permit cardiological implantable devices with sensing capabilities, such as the iStents, to be developed in such a way that MEMS sensors can be monolithically integrated ...

Repeat percutaneous recanalizations of a discontinuous pulmonary artery: A very “lucky” vessel

open access: yesAnnals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2020
Pulmonary artery (PA) discontinuity with ductal origin of a major pulmonary branch is a rare congenital anomaly that can be diagnosed as an isolated lesion or in association with major cardiac malformations. Arterial duct (AD) closure results in complete

Understanding and managing in-stent restenosis: a review of clinical data, from pathogenesis to treatment.

open access: yesJournal of Thoracic Disease, 2016
The lumen diameter reduction after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is well known as "restenosis". This phenomenon is due to vessel remodeling/recoil in case of no-stent strategy or, in case of stent employ, "neointimal proliferation" that ...
