Balloon dilatation angioplasty was successfully performed in five patients (ages 18 months to 17 years) with discrete aortic coarctation. The catheter size was No. 8F or 9F. Selection of balloon diameter was based on angiographic measurements of the aorta determined proximal and distal to the coarctation site. A 10 sec inflation-deflation cycle at 6 to 8 atmospheres (90 to 120 psi) was performe...

The angiographic and histologic consequences of laser thermal angioplasty were examined and compared with those of conventional balloon angioplasty in an atherosclerotic rabbit iliac artery preparation immediately and 4 weeks after the procedure. Nineteen vessels in 13 rabbits underwent either laser thermal or balloon angioplasty in random order. Laser thermal angioplasty was performed in a tot...
Today, the majority of coronary stents are balloon-expandable and are deployed using a balloon-tipped catheter. To improve deliverability, the membrane of the angioplasty balloon is typically folded about the catheter in a pleated configuration. As such, the deployment of the angioplasty balloon is governed by the material properties of the balloon membrane, its folded configuration and its att...
CONTEXT In patients with de novo coronary lesions, drug-eluting stents have drastically reduced restenosis risk compared with bare metal stents and conventional balloon angioplasty. It is less clear whether drug-eluting stents are superior to conventional balloon angioplasty for the treatment of patients with in-stent restenosis. OBJECTIVES To assess if drug-eluting stents are a more effectiv...
OBJECTIVES This study evaluated safety and efficacy of excimer laser angioplasty for treatment of restenosed or occluded coronary stents. BACKGROUND Balloon angioplasty of in-stent restenosis is limited by a high recurrence rate. Debulking by laser angioplasty is a novel concept to treat in-stent restenosis. METHODS A total of 440 patients with restenoses or occlusions in 527 stents were en...
INTRODUCTION Angioplasty with the use of cutting balloons has been suggested by some case reports and small series for the treatment of renal artery stenoses that are resistant to conventional balloon catheters. Based on this limited experience, the use of this technology has been suggested as safe. Herein, we report a renal artery rupture following angioplasty with a cutting balloon. The compl...
OBJECTIVES This study evaluated the acute physiological gain of adjunctive intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) guided balloon angioplasty and stent implantation. BACKGROUND Recent studies indicate safe coronary luminal enlargement and "stent-like" long-term outcomes using upsized balloons guided by IVUS. METHODS After angiographically guided balloon angioplasty in 20 patients with 1-vessel dise...
Cutting balloon angioplasty can reduce the restenosis rate more than conventional balloon angioplasty, but is traditionally performed through a femoral artery. However, it is not clear how useful a transradial approach would be for cutting balloon angioplasty. This study was conducted to examine the safety, feasibility, and limitations of transradial as opposed to transfemoral cutting balloon a...
OBJECTIVES In a multicenter, randomized trial, systematic stenting using the Wiktor stent was compared to conventional balloon angioplasty with provisional stenting for the treatment of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). BACKGROUND Primary angioplasty in AMI is limited by in-hospital recurrent ischemia and a high restenosis rate. METHODS A total of 211 patients with AMI <12 h from symptom o...
