Release of atherosclerotic debris after transluminal angioplasty.
To determine if there is release of endothelial cells or plaque contents after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty, effluent from atherosclerotic segments of the aorta and iliac arteries of rabbits were collected before and after angioplasty. No endothelial cells or cholesterol plates were identified in the preangioplasty effluents. Only a few single endothelial cells and cholesterol crystals...
متن کاملPathological findings after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty.
Ten serial pathological cross sections at 1 mm intervals of both the left anterior descending artery at the site of a percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty and of the circumflex artery in the untreated stenotic area were studied at necropsy in a patient who died immediately after the procedure. The extent of calcification and atheroma were similar in both branches. Intimal or medial sp...
متن کاملDiffusion-weighted imaging abnormalities after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and stenting for intracranial atherosclerotic disease.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The literature contains relatively few reports of distal embolism associated with intervention for intracranial atherosclerotic disease. Our purpose was to evaluate the frequency of thromboembolic events after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) or stent placement in this setting by using diffusion-weighted (DW) imaging. METHODS Between October 1999 and January ...

متن کاملSignificance of Cardiac Troponin T Release in Detecting Minor Myocardial Injury After Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty
649 Abstract: Cardiac Troponin T (TnT) is a regulatory contractile protein not normally found in blood. Its detection in the circulation has been shown to be a sensitive and specific marker for myocardial cell damage. This study was designed to evaluate the diagnostic efficiency of TnT enzyme immunoassay in detecting myocardial damage in patients with stable angina pectoris undergoing visually ...
