Efficacy and safety of Tornus catheter in percutaneous coronary intervention of hard or balloon-uncrossable chronic total occlusion
BACKGROUND Balloon advancement and dilation through chronic total occlusion segment could be challenging in some cases after successful wire crossing. The purpose of this study was to evaluate efficacy and safety of Tornus catheter (Asahi Intecc; Aichi, Japan) in percutaneous coronary intervention of chronic total occlusion in hard or balloon-uncrossable chronic total occlusion. METHODS The p...
متن کاملOverview of Intracoronary Brachytherapy for in-Stent Restenosis of a Drug-Eluting Stent
Percutaneous coronary intervention with stenting is considered recently as the most common procedure for the treatment of symptomatic coronary. The article reviewed 41 studies published during 1997-2019 on intracoronary brachytherapy for in-stent restenosis of a drug-eluting stent. Intracoronary radiation therapy was finally confirmed in the setting of in-stent restenosis using as adjunctive th...
متن کاملWhen intravascular ultrasound becomes indispensable in percutaneous coronary intervention of a chronic total occlusion.
Percutaneous coronary intervention of chronic total occlusion is a particular interventional area which requires high level of operator's experience and the support of additional tools based on intracoronary image such as intravascular ultrasound in many cases to clarify difficulties during procedures and to increase success rate. Implantation of long stents in many cases, the presence of stump...
متن کاملClinical, Electrocardiographic, and Procedural Characteristics of Patients With Coronary Chronic Total Occlusions
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Percutaneous coronary intervention for chronic total occlusion lesions is technically difficult despite equipment advances. Changes in electrocardiographic patterns, such as Q and T waves, during chronic total occlusion can provide information about procedural success and myocardial viability. In this study, we investigated clinical, electrocardiographic, and procedura...
متن کاملRationale and design of EXPLORE: a randomized, prospective, multicenter trial investigating the impact of recanalization of a chronic total occlusion on left ventricular function in patients after primary percutaneous coronary intervention for acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction
BACKGROUND In the setting of primary percutaneous coronary intervention, patients with a chronic total occlusion in a non-infarct related artery were recently identified as a high-risk subgroup. It is unclear whether ST-elevation myocardial infarction patients with a chronic total occlusion in a non-infarct related artery should undergo additional percutaneous coronary intervention of the chron...
