Simulation of bifurcated stent grafts to treat abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In this paper a method is introduced, to visualize bifurcated stent grafts in CT-Data. The aim is to improve therapy planning for minimal invasive treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). Due to precise measurement of the abdominal aortic aneurysm and exact simulation of the bifurcated stent graft, physicians are supported in choosing a suitable ...

A polymer coated cicaprost-eluting stent increases neointima formation and impairs vessel function in the rabbit iliac artery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Drug-eluting stents have been successful in reducing in-stent restenosis but are not suitable for all lesion types and have been implicated in causing late stent thrombosis due to incomplete regeneration of the endothelial cell layer.

Effect of Intravascular Ultrasound-Guided vs Angiography-Guided Everolimus-Eluting Stent Implantation: The IVUS-XPL Randomized Clinical Trial.

open access: yesJournal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 2015
IMPORTANCE Use of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) promotes better clinical outcomes for coronary intervention in complex coronary lesions. However, randomized data demonstrating the clinical usefulness of IVUS are limited for lesions treated with drug ...

Bilateral external carotid artery stenting in symptomatic patient with complete occlusion of both internal carotid arteries

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, 2021
Completely occluded ICA should not always turn a symptomatic patient down for surgical intervention especially if medical treatment fails. Where bilateral ECA intervention is required, endovascular approach should be considered if feasible.

Prediction of stent under-expansion in calcified coronary arteries using machine-learning on intravascular optical coherence tomography [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
BACKGROUND Careful evaluation of the risk of stent under-expansions before the intervention will aid treatment planning, including the application of a pre-stent plaque modification strategy. OBJECTIVES It remains challenging to achieve a proper stent expansion in the presence of severely calcified coronary lesions.

Comparison Between Patent Ductus Arteriosus Stent and Modified Blalock-Taussig Shunt as Palliation for Infants With Ductal-Dependent Pulmonary Blood Flow: Insights From the Congenital Catheterization Research Collaborative

open access: yesCirculation, 2017
Background: Infants with ductal-dependent pulmonary blood flow may undergo palliation with either a patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) stent or a modified Blalock-Taussig (BT) shunt. A balanced multicenter comparison of these 2 approaches is lacking. Methods:

Single Center Experience of the Balloon-Stent Technique for the Treatment of Unruptured Distal Internal Carotid Artery Aneurysms: Sharing a Simple and Reliable Tip to Use Scepter-Atlas Combination

open access: yes대한영상의학회지, 2021
Purpose The balloon-stent technique (BST) has certain strengths as an assisted technique for the treatment of complex aneurysms. After Atlas release, the BST can be executed without an exchange maneuver of the balloon to the stent-delivery catheter ...

In Silico Fatigue Optimization of TAVR Stent Designs with Physiological Motion in a Beating Heart Model [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
The rapid expansion of TAVR to younger, low-risk patients raises concerns regarding device durability. Necessarily, extended stent lifetime will become more critical for new generation devices. In vitro methods commonly used for TAVR stent fatigue testing exclude the effects of the beating heart.

Parametric optimization of the femoropopliteal artery stent design based on numerical analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
High-failure rates of Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) stenting were reported due to the inability of certain stent strut configuration to accommodate severe biomechanical environment of the Femoro-Popliteal Artery (FPA) such as bends, twists, and ...
