Atherotome dislodgement and successful retrieval during cutting balloon pulmonary angioplasty.

چکیده
Cutting balloons (CBs) are beneficial for dilation of resistant branch pulmonary artery (PA) stenosis in children.1 There are rare reports of atherotome fracture2 and a Food and Drug Administration adverse event report of a fractured atherotome dislodging and remaining in the patient.3 We report CB atherotome dislodgement and embolization with successful retrieval in a patient with Alagille syndrome and branch PA stenosis.

متن کاملEarly Dislodgement of Drug-Eluting Coronary Stent from The Balloon Catheter
Early complete dislodgement of stent from the balloon catheter is a rare complication and may lead to severe coronary ischaemia. In such cases, the first treatment option is the retrieval of the material, while another option is to squeeze the undeployed stent into vessel wall by inflating the balloon. Although several methods and devices are available for stent removal, retrieval procedure is ...
متن کاملStent dislodgement in left anterior descending coronary artery and successful deployment with two parallel wires and a small balloon.
Coronary artery stent dislodgement during angioplasty is a rare complication. Stent dislodgement was more frequent in the past when stents were manually crimped onto the balloon. Newer and improved balloon-mounted stents with better radio-opacity have reduced the incidence of stent dislodgement but do not completely eliminate it. We report a case of balloon-mounted stent dislodgement in the pro...
متن کاملPEDIATRIC AND CONGENITAL HEART DISEASE Original Studies Comparison of Conventional and Cutting Balloon Angioplasty for Congenital and Postoperative Pulmonary Vein Stenosis in Infants and Young Children
Background: Pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS) is a rare and often lethal condition in children. The optimal treatment for congenital and postoperative PVS is unknown. Methods and Results: We compared outcomes of conventional balloon angioplasty performed for PVS from 1999 to 2003 against cutting balloon angioplasty performed from 2004 to 2007. A total of 100 previously undilated pulmonary veins in ...
متن کاملCutting balloon angioplasty for carotid artery in-stent stenosis supported by three-dimensional rotational angiography with automated vessel analysis software.
In-stent stenosis is a possible long-term complication of carotid artery stenting. A simple and safe technique of cutting balloon angioplasty is described for carotid in-stent stenosis. The stented vessel is imaged by three-dimensional (3D) rotational angiography, the acquired projection images are transferred to a workstation, and the stenotic lesion and implanted stent are reconstructed. The ...
