When Subtle Guiding Catheter‐Induced Stent Deformation Leads to Abluminal Guidewire Passage: Successful IVUS Tip‐Detection‐Guided Bailout

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Incomplete stent apposition at the proximal coronary artery may predispose to subtle guiding catheter–induced stent deformation, creating a gap between the stent and the vessel wall that facilitates inadvertent abluminal guidewire passage. We report a case in which balloon dilatation over an unrecognized abluminal guidewire resulted in severe ...

Unprotected Left Main Disease: Clinical Outcomes Following Deferral, Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting, or Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The prognostic benefit of revascularization for unprotected left main (LM) disease remains uncertain, as guideline endorsement of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) precludes comparison with deferral, which is unlikely to be assessed in a randomized trial.

“Bendy” stents help negotiate hairpin intracardiac curves [PDF]

, 2015
Simple transposition of the great arteries (TGA) occurs in 0.2 per 1000 live births. The condition is surgically repaired in the neonatal period by the arterial switch procedure (ASO) sometimes preceded by an atrial septostomy.

Spatial Mismatch Between Angiographic Obstruction and Plaque Destabilization in Acute Coronary Syndromes: A Conceptual Narrative Review

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The identification of the “culprit lesion” in acute coronary syndromes (ACS) traditionally relies on coronary angiography, assuming that the most severe stenosis, abrupt occlusion, or largest filling defect marks the site of plaque destabilization.

Mechanisms and Management of Acquired Aseptic Intracardiac Communications After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation: Single‐Center Case Series Insights

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Acquired aseptic intracardiac communications (AICCs) are rare but clinically relevant structural complications following transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), typically resulting from mechanical injury to the aortic annulus, interventricular septum, or adjacent structures.

Intravascular Lithotripsy in Left Main Stem Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background IVL is increasingly used for coronary calcium modification; however, prospective data for its use in LMS lesions are lacking. Aims To evaluate the feasibility, safety, and mechanical efficacy of intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) for calcium modification in calcified distal left main stem (LMS) percutaneous coronary intervention ...

Early Experience With Evoque Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Replacement in Carcinoid Heart Disease

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is nearly universal in carcinoid heart disease (CHD), but surgical replacement carries significant risk, and CHD was excluded from the landmark TRISCEND II trial. We present seven patients with CHD undergoing Evoque transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement (TTVR) at two tertiary centers.

Balloon‐Stopper Retrieval and Peripheral Parking After Inadvertent Ostial Right Coronary Stent Deployment

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Percutaneous treatment of right coronary artery (RCA) ostial lesions is technically challenging due to cardiorespiratory motion. Case Summary We describe a 70‐year‐old man undergoing PCI for an ostial RCA lesion where a forceful cough caused complete stent expansion within the aortic root.

Diagnostic Agreement and Threshold Correspondence Between Resting Full‐Cycle Ratio and Nicorandil‐Based Fractional Flow Reserve in Intermediate Coronary Stenosis: A Prospective Single‐Center Registry

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background RFR has shown good aggregate agreement with FFR, including in prior Asian cohorts using intracoronary nicorandil. Where RFR‐FFR disagreement is concentrated relative to the FFR 0.80 decision boundary, and how the two binary thresholds correspond, remain incompletely characterized. Methods In a prospective single‐center registry, 300
