Rotational Atherectomy and Stent Implantation for Calcified Left Main Lesions
BACKGROUND Left main coronary artery (LMCA) bifurcation and heavily calcified lesions are common and challenging to treat percutaneously. Rotational atherectomy (RA) may be beneficial in this setting to facilitate stent placement though direct supporting evidence is lacking. This study sought to analyze patients who underwent RA of the LMCA. METHODS Consecutive cases involving RA of the LMCA ...
متن کاملPseudo dislodgement of a stent due to crumpling of a coronary artery: a hitherto unreported complication of the "accordion effect".
The "accordion effect" is a mechanical remodeling of the arterial wall produced by endoluminal introduction of stiff guidewires, leading to vessel wall shortening and development of multiple eccentric constrictions. This phenomenon is unresponsive to vasodilators and may lead to unnecessary stenting of the pseudo-lesions. It must be suspected with the development of multiple lesions and when a ...
متن کاملCalcified Lesions
In 1988, the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association Task Force on Assessment of Diagnostic and Therapeutic Cardiovascular Procedures published a report regarding appropriate utilization of PTCA in the treatment of patients with coronary artery disease. In that report, moderate-to-heavy calcification (Type B characteristic) was considered an important risk factor for procedura...
متن کاملAcute stent malfunction in a calcified lesion
Stent fracture is an emerging complication of coronary stenting. Stent fractures were originally reported in the superficial femoral arteries but have since been reported in almost all vascular sites. They are the result of the complex interplay among stent design, the stented segment, plaque morphology, deployment technique, including forceful exaggerated motion in the atrioventricular groove ...
متن کاملStent graft infixation after venous dislodgement in a patient with femoral posttraumatic arteriovenous fistula.
INTRODUCTION An arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is an abnormal connection between an artery and a vein which may result from traumatic injury or may occur as congenital abnormality. Stent graft repair through arteriovenous fistula could lead to complications. CASE REPORT Endovascular stent graft repair in a 23-year-old patient with posttraumatic superficial femoral arteriovenous fistula was perfo...
