The importance of acute luminal diameter in determining restenosis after coronary atherectomy or stenting.
BACKGROUND We evaluated native coronary arteries treated by directional coronary atherectomy or balloon-expandable stent placement in an effort to derive a quantitative geometric model relating the luminal diameter immediately after intervention to that present 6 months later. The minimal luminal diameter of each lesion was measured before and immediately after intervention in 102 single Palmaz...
متن کاملRestenosis after directional coronary atherectomy. Effects of luminal diameter and deep wall excision.
BACKGROUND Deep wall excision during directional atherectomy has been reported in one study to increase the risk of subsequent restenosis. On the other hand, we have observed that the probability of late (6-month) restenosis is reduced by maximizing postprocedure luminal diameter. Although such maximal luminal enlargement by directional atherectomy has not increased procedural complications in ...
متن کاملPrediction of restenosis after coronary angioplasty by use of a new index: TIMI frame count/minimal luminal diameter ratio.
BACKGROUND It has been shown recently that postangioplasty coronary flow reserve and the degree of residual stenosis have a modest predictive value for short- and long-term clinical outcomes after coronary angioplasty. Corrected TIMI frame count (CTFC) is a simple quantitative index of coronary blood flow. Its relationship with Doppler coronary flow velocity and clinical outcome after coronary ...

Restenosis Following Coronary Angioplasty: Current Status
Since introduction almost 25 years ago by Dr. Andreas Gruentzig, percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) has established itself as a viable non-surgical treatment option for patients with symptomatic coronary artery disease. With improvement in operation techniques and angioplasty equipments, especially with the availability of stents, the PTCA procedural success rate approaches o...
