Cutting 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...
متن کاملCutting balloon angioplasty for the treatment of in-stent restenosis: a matched comparison with rotational atherectomy, additional stent implantation and balloon angioplasty.
OBJECTIVES The purpose of the study was to determine whether cutting balloon angioplasty (CBA) has advantages over other modalities in treatment of in-stent restenosis (ISR). BACKGROUND Controversies exist regarding optimal treatment for ISR. Recently, CBA emerged as a tool in management of ISR. METHODS A total of 648 lesions treated for ISR were divided into four groups according to the tr...
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...
