Management of the no-reflow phenomenon.
The lack of reperfusion of myocardium after prolonged ischaemia that may occur despite opening of the infarct-related artery is termed "no reflow". No reflow or slow flow occurs in 3-4% of all percutaneous coronary interventions, and is most common after emergency revascularization for acute myocardial infarction. In this setting no reflow is reported to occur in 30% to 40% of interventions whe...

To the Editor: In reviewing no-reflow, Rezkalla and Kloner1 indicted injuryinduced microvascular changes, but did not mention spasm of resistance vessels, which might be the basic mechanism of no-reflow. I proposed in 1971 that no-reflow (“stasis”) is due to ischemic injury-induced spasm, and the evidence seemed convincing.2 Short coronary occlusions reversed no-reflow, and this was interpreted...
متن کامل'No-reflow' phenomenon.
A 57-year-old man presented with new anginal symptoms nine years after three-vessel coronary artery bypass grafting. Cardiac catherization revealed severely and diffusely diseased saphenous vein graft to the obtuse marginal coronary artery. Percutaneous coronary intervention was complicated by the ‘no-reflow’ phenomenon. The patient suffered a periprocedural myocardial infarction (peak troponin...
متن کاملNo-reflow phenomenon.
Because total coronary artery occlusion was found in the early hours of transmural myocardial infarction, most of our research interest and treatment strategies focus on epicardial coronary arteries.1 Little attention, however, is paid to the coronary microvasculature. When a coronary artery is occluded, detrimental changes occur in the cardiac capillaries and arterioles. After relief of the oc...
متن کاملNo-reflow phenomenon in patients with acute myocardial infarction: its pathophysiology and clinical implications.
For patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI), the immediate therapeutic goal is to establish the patency of the infarct-related artery. Prolonged myocardial ischemia, however, often breaks down the coronary microvasculature, and the flow to the infarct myocardium may be markedly reduced. This is called the no-reflow phenomenon. This phenomenon is important not solely because it correlates...
