[Retrograde angioplasty: an option for total coronary artery occlusions].
The safety and effectiveness of angioplasty for chronic total occlusions of the coronary arteries have been demonstrated in several studies, but the success rate is less than for conventional interventions. The complexity of the procedures presents a major challenge. In selected cases, performing angioplasty of the occlusion via a retrograde approach has been used as an alternative. We present ...
متن کاملPercutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty of Chronic Total Occlusions
Background. Angioplasty of chronically totally occluded vessels has been associated with a success rate well below and restenosis rate well above that for angioplasty of stenosed segments. However, long-term clinical outcome after successful revascularization of a chronically totally occluded vessel has not been reported in detail. Methods and Results. Accordingly, data for 480 patients undergo...
متن کاملSimultaneous transradial coronary angioplasty and contralateral coronary angiography with a single guide catheter for total coronary occlusions.
OBJECTIVE In order to prevent double arterial access for contralateral angiography for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of occluded coronary arteries, a new technique is under development, requiring only one puncture site and one guide catheter (1P1G). BACKGROUND Percutaneous intervention for coronary artery occlusions frequently requires visualization of the segment distal to the occ...
متن کاملInvestigation factors affecting the first recurrence of coronary artery disease in patients undergone angioplasty using cox survival model
Background: The incidence of restenosis in patients suffering from coronary artery disease after undergoing angioplasty is of paramount importance. Accordingly, this study aimed to investigate factors affecting the time of the first incidence of restenosis in patients undergone angioplasty in the city of Zanjan, Iran. Methods: This retrospective cohort study was conducted on 421 patie...
متن کاملChronic Total Occlusions in Sweden – A Report from the Swedish Coronary Angiography and Angioplasty Registry (SCAAR)
INTRODUCTION Evidence for the current guidelines for the treatment of patients with chronic total occlusions (CTO) in coronary arteries is limited. In this study we identified all CTO patients registered in the Swedish Coronary Angiography and Angioplasty Registry (SCAAR) and studied the prevalence, patient characteristics and treatment decisions for CTO in Sweden. METHODS AND RESULTS Between...
