Prevention of distal embolization during coronary angioplasty in saphenous vein grafts and native vessels using porous filter protection.
BACKGROUND Although distal embolization and the "no-reflow" phenomenon are well described in saphenous vein graft (SVG) interventions, the frequency, magnitude, and characterization of embolized debris have not been evaluated in routine coronary interventions. A unique embolus protection device described herein provides a means of containing and retrieving plaque material dislodged during percu...

متن کاملPrevention of distal embolization during saphenous vein graft lesion angioplasty. Experience with a new temporary occlusion and aspiration system.
BACKGROUND Repeat coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) is associated with a high morbidity and mortality, rendering percutaneous treatment of saphenous vein graft (SVG) lesions an attractive alternative. However, percutaneous interventions of degenerated SVGs carries high risk of distal embolization. METHODS AND RESULTS This study reports our initial experience with the PercuSurge Guar...
متن کاملRandomized trial of a distal embolic protection device during percutaneous intervention of saphenous vein aorto-coronary bypass grafts.
BACKGROUND Stents provide effective treatment for stenotic saphenous venous aorto-coronary bypass grafts, but their placement carries a 20% incidence of procedure-related complications, which potentially are related to the distal embolization of atherosclerotic debris. We report the first multicenter randomized trial to evaluate use of a distal embolic protection device during stenting of such ...
متن کاملProcedural results and distal embolization after saphenous vein graft stenting and angioplasty for in-stent restenosis of grafts.
Saphenous vein graft (SVG) angioplasty is associated with frequent periprocedural complications due to distal embolization and a high risk of restenosis. The purpose of this single-center, retrospective study was to determine the distal embolization incidences and outcomes of stenting for SVG lesions and percutaneous angioplasty for in-stent restenosis of these SVGs. We studied 48 consecutive p...
