[The coronary sinus reducer stent for the treatment of chronic refractory angina pectoris].
We were very interested to read the article dealing with therapeutic options in patients with chronic refractory angina pectoris (RAP) signed by Cohen et al. 1 The authors presented an excellent review of the therapeutic options for such ''no-option'' patients suffering from chronic RAP caused by severe symptomatic and chronic coronary artery disease. May we quote Dr. Cohen and colleagues: ''Re...
متن کاملCoronary Sinus Reducer Stent for the Treatment of Chronic Refractory Angina Pectoris
Background Increased coronary sinus (CS) pressure can reduce myocardial ischemia by redistribution of blood from nonischemic to ischemic territories. The Coronary Sinus Reducer is a percutaneous implantable device designed to establish CS narrowing and to elevate CS pressure. In preclinical experiments, implantation of the Reducer was safe and was associated with improved ischemic parameters. I...
متن کاملThe coronary sinus reducer for the treatment of refractory angina
We were very interested to read the recently published manuscript ‘Safety and efficacy of a device to narrow the coronary sinus for the treatment of refractory angina: A single-centre real-world experience’ by Masieh Abawi et al. [1]. Some people make a mistake and compare the coronary sinus reducer (CSR) with the Beck procedure (Beck operation), but actually the Beck procedure has almost nothi...
متن کاملSinus arrest following right coronary artery stent implantation
Sinus arrest rarely occurs during acute myocardial infarction involving the right coronary artery (RCA) and sinus node (SN) artery. We report a rare case of sinus arrest caused by SN artery occlusion following RCA stenting. A 56-year-old woman with a significant history of RCA stenosis with prior bare metal stenting, presented to the emergency department with anginal chest pain. Initial work up...
متن کاملSimulated extraction of stent stabilized coronary sinus leads
Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is an effective nonpharmacological therapeutic method for the treatment of selected patients with chronic heart failure with a wide QRS complex and mechanical dyssynchrony of cardiac ventricles. A new technique is used to stabilize the implanted coronary sinus lead in an appropriate position with an expanded coronary stent to maintain synchronous pacing o...
