Outcome of extensive coronary artery dissection during coronary angioplasty.
A total of 32 (3.6%) patients of 880 undergoing coronary angioplasty during a nine year period at one hospital had extensive dissection (defined as a dissection extending beyond the limits of the dilated angioplasty balloon) in the coronary artery in which the angioplasty procedure was performed. Two (6.25%) of the 32 patients (both of whom were undergoing angioplasty because of unstable angina...
متن کاملCoronary Calcifications in the Detection of Coronary Artery Disease and Comparison with Electrocardiographic Exercise Testing
Recent studies have noted the limitations of the exercise ECG as a screening test for coronary artery disease (CAD), particularly in asymptomatic patients. To improve the sensitivity and predictive accuracy of noninvasive screening studies, we analyzed the results of using cardiac fluoroscopy (to detect coronary calcifications) in conjunction with electrocardiographic exercise testing to detect...
متن کاملExtensive Bilateral Intracranial Calcifications: A Case of Iatrogenic Hypoparathyroidism
This is a case of a 69-year-old male patient with long-standing iatrogenic hypoparathyroidism after total thyroidectomy. The clinical evaluation revealed mild neurological symptoms and excessive brain calcinosis. Intracranial calcification that affects structures other than the basal ganglia and the cerebellum is a rare manifestation of postoperative hypoparathyroidism. Detection of brain calci...
