Coronary pressure measurement to identify the lesion requiring percutaneous coronary intervention in equivocal tandem lesions [PDF]

Coronary Artery Disease, 2006
No reliable methods are available for determining application of percutaneous coronary intervention for treatment of equivocal tandem lesions. We investigated whether coronary pressure measurement is useful for determining the lesion that requires percutaneous coronary intervention in tandem lesions.We measured coronary pressure in 72 consecutive ...

Coronary tandem lesions: Effect of exercise

American Heart Journal, 1992
Coronary vasomotion of two stenoses in series (i.e., tandem lesion) was studied in 10 patients with coronary artery disease. Percent area stenosis was 69% +/- 23% for the first (S1) lesion and 70% +/- 37% for the second (S2). Quantitative coronary arteriography was carried out at rest, during two levels of exercise (2 minutes, 75 W and 1.9 minutes, 100

Treatment of tandem lesions of the extracranial carotid artery

Neurosurgery, 1984
Abstract The authors present a patient with bihemispheric transient ischemic attacks attributed to stenosis of the left common carotid origin and stenosis and ulceration of the left cervical internal carotid artery. Because of precarious cerebral blood supply secondary to occlusions of the right common carotid and left vertebral arteries,

Tandem lesion' coronary angioplasty

Coronary Artery Disease, 1995
To evaluate the acute and long-term results of 'tandem lesion' coronary angioplasty in the left anterior descending artery, and to identify the determinants of restenosis.A retrospective analysis of clinical, angiographic, and procedure-related variables was carried out on a consecutive series of 102 patients (mean age 54 years, range 34-71 years; 77 ...

Rheological significance of tandem lesions of the coronary artery

Heart and Vessels, 1995
It is not known whether the individual lesions that constitute tandem lesions of the coronary artery are developmentally or rheologically related. Luminal changes and their rheological significance were examined by percutaneous angioscopy in 44 tandem lesions of 21 patients with ischemic heart disease.

Endovascular Treatment of Tandem Lesions of the Carotid Arteries.

Annals of Vascular Surgery, 2014
High-grade stenoses of both common (CCA) and the internal (ICA) carotid arteries are rare and represent a therapeutic dilemma for the treating physician. The aim of this article is to present our experience with fully endovascular repair of those lesions.Between January 2011 and December 2012, 5 patients (all male, age 73.6 years) with concomitant CCA ...

A Case of Tandem Lesions in the Extracranial Internal Carotid Artery

Archives of Surgery, 1983
The tortuous internal carotid artery is occasionally encountered during carotid endarterectomy. While much has been written about the hemodynamic problems associated with the tortuous vessel, a second atherosclerotic plaque in the kinked portion of the artery has not been reported previously, to our knowledge.

Double Eversion Carotid Endarterectomy of Tandem Carotid Lesions

Annals of Vascular Surgery, 2014
We describe an original method to treat tandem lesions of the internal carotid artery (ICA) and the common carotid artery (CCA). In this manuscript, we describe a "double eversion carotid endarterectomy" technique (DECE) and report our results.A retrospective review in the medical records of patients that underwent DECE over a 15-year period was ...

Management and Treatment of Tandem Carotid Lesions

Annals of Vascular Surgery
Tandem lesions of the proximal aortic branch vessels and carotid bifurcation are uncommon. While management strategies vary, a hybrid approach of carotid endarterectomy with retrograde common carotid artery (CCA) or innominate artery (IA) stenting has become a mainstay of treatment. The purpose of this article was to provide a review of the literature,

Tandem Lesions of the Internal Carotid Arteries and Their Management

1979
The significance of the combination of two or more vascular lesions (stenoses and occlusions) causing disturbances in the cerebral circulation has long been understood. Therefore, it is not surprising that, in one fifth of the patients with internal carotid occlusion a severe stenosis can be found in the contralateral internal carotid artery.
