Effectiveness of Two-Year Versus One-Year Use of Dual Antiplatelet Therapy in Reducing the Risk of Very Late Stent Thrombosis After Drug-Eluting Stent Implantation [PDF]

Journal of Tehran University Heart Center, 2012
Background: Impact of 12 months’ versus 24 months’ use of dual antiplatelet therapy on the prevalence of stent thrombosis in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with the drug-eluting stent (DES) is not clear.

Final 2‐Year Results of the REFORM Study: A Randomized Trial of Biolimus DCB Versus Paclitaxel DCB for In‐Stent Restenosis

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background In the REFORM trial, treatment of coronary in‐stent restenosis with a Biolimus A9™ drug‐coated balloon (BCB) was found to be inferior with respect to in‐segment percentage stenosis at 6‐months in comparison to treatment with a standard paclitaxel coated paclitaxel‐coated balloon (PCB). Aims In this manuscript, the final prespecified

Buddy Wire–Augmented Intravascular Lithotripsy in Refractory Calcified Coronary Lesions: A Five‐Case Series

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heavily calcified coronary lesions remain a major challenge in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), often limiting the effectiveness of intravascular lithotripsy (IVL). We report a five‐case series in which IVL failed to achieve adequate lesion modification but was successfully augmented by the addition of one or more buddy wires.

Clinical Outcomes of the Allegra Transcatheter System in Bioprosthetic Aortic Valve Failure: A Multicentre Valve‐in‐Valve Registry

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction The prevalence of bioprosthetic aortic valve failure is increasing due to the broader use of bioprosthetic valves, both surgical and transcatheter, and an ageing population. Registry data indicate a higher risk of coronary obstruction and elevated gradients following valve‐in‐valve transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI ...

Clinical Outcomes of Drug‐Eluting Stents and Drug‐Coated Balloons in Tortuous Small Coronary Lesions

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background In small, tortuous coronary lesions, the long‐term comparative performance of drug‐coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty versus drug‐eluting stent (DES) treatment remains uncertain, despite both strategies being widely used in contemporary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) practice. Aims This study aimed to compare 3‐year clinical

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

, 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 ...

Anti-platelet drugs, pharmacogenomics and stent thrombosis: What’s new?

SA Heart Journal, 2017
Stent thrombosis is a catastrophic complication of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and is associated with a mortality of 25 to 40%. The perception that stent thrombosis is very low in all patients has resulted in a lack of adherence to ...

Evaluating the Impact of Enhanced Stent Visualization on PCI Outcomes in Older Patients With Multivessel Disease

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Optimal stent expansion is a key determinant of long‐term outcomes after PCI. Intravascular imaging provides the most accurate assessment of stent deployment but remains underused, especially in older patients with MI and multivessel disease.

Acute ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction after Coronary Stent Fracture

Journal of Tehran University Heart Center, 2016
The invention of the drug-eluting stent (DES) has brought about revolutionary changes in the field of interventional cardiology. In the DES era, in-stent restenosis has declined but new issues such as stent thrombosis have emerged.

Detection of Post‐Stent Medial Dissection and White Thrombus Using Hybrid IVUS OCT Imaging may Help Guide Management

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We present a 66‐year‐old undergoing ostial‐to‐mid right coronary artery (RCA) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) lesion proximal to an existing stent in the mid‐to‐distal segment. The patient underwent PCI, with intravascular imaging using the Novasight Hybrid IVUS OCT (Conavi, Toronto, CA) which revealed a proximal edge dissection and ...
