Atherotome dislodgement and successful retrieval during cutting balloon pulmonary angioplasty.
Cutting balloons (CBs) are beneficial for dilation of resistant branch pulmonary artery (PA) stenosis in children.1 There are rare reports of atherotome fracture2 and a Food and Drug Administration adverse event report of a fractured atherotome dislodging and remaining in the patient.3 We report CB atherotome dislodgement and embolization with successful retrieval in a patient with Alagille syn...

متن کاملCutting balloon angioplasty for intrastent restenosis treatment.
We describe here two patients with angiographic diagnosis of intrastent restenosis and regional myocardial ischemia. One stent restenosis was located in a native coronary artery and the other in a vein graft. Both were treated with cutting balloon angioplasty (CBA), inflated at low pressures. Angiographic success was obtained and both patients were discharged in the day after the procedure. Cut...
متن کاملCutting Balloon angioplasty for cardiac transplant vasculopathy.
We performed Cutting Balloon angioplasty on 20 lesions in 11 heart transplant recipients 7.5 +/- 3.8 years after transplantation. The mean percentage of diameter stenosis decreased from 88.3% +/- 13.8% to 19.6% +/- 13.7% after Cutting Balloon angioplasty without complication. Seven patients underwent follow-up angiography at 4.9 +/- 1.7 months in a total of 12 lesions, and all lesions showed re...
متن کاملCutting Balloon Angioplasty versus Conventional Balloon Angioplasty for In-Stent Restenosis Treated by Intracoronary Radiation Therapy
Background: Cutting Balloon angioplasty (CBA) may be a useful treatment modality for in-stent restenosis (ISR) as it maintains a stable position during dilatation and results in potentially less injury than plain old balloon angioplasty (POBA). The purpose of this study was to compare CBA and POBA with intracoronary radiation therapy (IRT) for in-stent restenosis (ISR). Methods: We selected 157...
