severe coronary artery disease often coexists with peripheral vascular atherosclerosis. the assessment of the supra-aortic circulation is, therefore, of clinical relevance. we herein describe a case of coronary artery disease treated with surgical revascularization using the internal mammary artery and thereafter the progressive atherosclerotic disease of the native coronary arteries as well as...
OBJECTIVES We hypothesized that percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty performed on coronary stenoses that have demonstrated rapid angiographic progression would be associated with a high risk of restenosis. BACKGROUND High rates of restenosis have been documented after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty of unstable lesions and of lesions that recur rapidly after a success...
Introduction: Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) is an effective method for revascularizing of stenotic coronary vessels. Lack of response to this treatment, either in symptomatic or asymptomatic patients, is usually due to incomplete revascularization, restenosis, and/or irreversibility of myocardial perfusion. Introduction of a noninvasive metho...
A 57 year old man required emergency coronary artery bypass surgery after dissection of the left main coronary artery during percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty. His symptoms recurred when the vein grafts became occluded. A dilatation device with the lowest profile was used to reduce the need for firm support from the guiding catheter during repeat percutaneous transluminal coronary ...
background: combination antiplatelet therapy is a classic treatment for percutaneous coronary intervention (pci) but this therapy increases gastrointestinal bleeding (gib). this study highlights the incidence of related risk factors of gib and endoscopic findings in patients with gib after pci and combination antiplatelet therapy. materials and methods: a standard check list was used to evaluat...
There has been a growing trend toward percutaneous coronary angioplasty for complex coronary artery lesions. Stent or guidewire break off or trapping within the coronary artery lumen is a rare complication, but it may have fatal consequences. In such cases, the entrapped device may be removed by either percutaneous route or surgical exploration. Here, we report a patient with guidewire entrapme...
BACKGROUND Increasingly studies have identified socioeconomic factors adversely affecting healthcare outcomes for a multitude of diseases. To date, however, there has not been a study correlating socioeconomic details from nationwide databases on the prevalence of advanced coronary artery disease. We seek to identify whether socioeconomic factors contribute to advanced coronary artery disease p...
Inappropriate percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty of the anterior descending artery was avoided in a 52-year-old woman when the intracoronary administration of glyceryl trinitrate immediately before the angioplasty disclosed the organic component of the supposedly fixed, critical (80%) stenosis to be less than 50% of the lumen diameter. The spastic component of the stenosis had not b...
BACKGROUND It is known that there is an association between elevated total plasma homocysteine level and restenosis after percutaneous coronary angioplasty. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of lowering plasma homocysteine levels on the rate of restenosis after stent-percutaneous coronary angioplasty. METHODS Folic acid (1 mg) or placebo was administered to 200 patients (mean +/- SD age of 5...
BACKGROUND Percutaneous balloon angioplasty has become a well-established and routine procedure for coronary revascularization of haemodialysis patients with coronary artery disease. However, the incidence of restenosis after balloon angioplasty is significantly higher in haemodialysis patients than in the general population. We performed a retrospective study comparing balloon angioplasty with...
