Everolimus-Eluting Stents or Bypass Surgery for Left Main Coronary Artery Disease.
New England Journal of Medicine, 2016 BACKGROUND Patients with obstructive left main coronary artery disease are usually treated with coronary-artery bypass grafting (CABG). Randomized trials have suggested that drug-eluting stents may be an acceptable alternative to CABG in selected ...

Tracheomalatia, to stent or not to stent
Respiratory Medicine Case Reports, 2015 Benign thyroid disorders such as goiter, especially retrosternal, can cause tracheostenosis by extrinsic tracheal compression, which is due to the lack of specific symptoms often misdiagnosed. Tracheomalatia develops as a result to long term tracheal compression and refers to weakness of the trachea characterized by softness of the tracheal cartilage ...

Microscale stress-geometry interactions in an additively manufactured NiTi cardiovascular stent: A synchrotron dual imaging tomography and diffraction study [PDF]
Materials Characterization 213 (2024) 114016, 2023 This study explores cardiovascular stents fabricated using laser powder bed fusion (LPBF); an emerging method to offer patient-specific customisable parts. Here, the shape memory alloy NiTi, in a near equiatomic composition, was investigated to deconvolve the material response from macroscopic component effects.

Renovascular Hypertension [PDF]
Hypertension, 2014 A 69-year-old women smoker was referred to the nephrology clinic for assessment of hypertension and declining kidney function. At the time of referral, serum creatinine was 241 μmol/L and office blood pressure was 191/100 mm Hg. Her general practitioner had already performed 24-hour ambulatory monitoring and found no evidence of a white coat component ...
