Proximal Side Optimization: A Modification of the Double Kissing Crush Technique
Author(s): Francesco Lavarra Added: 3 years ago
True coronary bifurcations (Medina 1,1,1 and most of 1,0,1 and 0,1,1) with side branch (SB) diameter of >2.25 mm and lesion length of >10 mm are likely to require two-stent treatment techniques (Figure 1A).1,2 The Crush technique underwent a series of technical iterations and modifications by Chen et al. before evolving into the so-called mini double kissing Crush (DK-Crush) technique.3,4 … View more

Consequences and Management of Excessive Ostial Stent Protrusion
Author(s): Arditya Damarkusuma Added: 1 month ago
In this video, Dr Arditya Damarkusuma (Universitas Gadjah Mada, ID) presents his case report on aorto-ostial lesions, recently published in ICR Journal.This case covers the restenosis of a markedly protruding stent at the right coronary ostium in a 54-year old man, and is unusual in its 10-year longevity. Intravascular ultrasound-guided in-stent restenosis intervention using a wire bumper… View more

EuroPCR 2022: Optimize PRO Interim Analysis Finds New Technique is "Best-in-Class"
Author(s): Kendra J Grubb Added: 1 year ago
Dr Kendra Grubb (Emory Structural Heart and Valve Center, GA, US) outlines the interim analysis of the Optimize PRO Study (NCT04091048), originally presented at EuroPCR 2022. Optimize PRO aimed to evaluate valve performance and procedural outcomes of optimised TAVR care using Medtronic's Evolut™ PRO and Evolut™ PRO+ devices. Findings are promising and show that no patients experienced a… View more

Polymer-based sirolimus (Cypher®) and paclitaxel (Taxus®) drug-eluting stents (DES) have reduced rates of restenosis and target lesion revascularization (TLR) compared with bare-metal stents (BMS) and have launched a revolution in the interventional treatment of symptomatic coronary artery disease.1,2 However, this overwhelming enthusiasm has recently been dampened by safety concerns regarding a… View more

EuroPCR 23: 3 Trials That Will Change Your Practice With Dr Mirvat Alasnag
Author(s): Mirvat Alasnag Added: 11 months ago
EuroPCR 23 — We are joined by Dr Mirvat Alasnag (The King Fahd Armed Forces Hospital, SA) for an insightful summary of three late-breaking trials that are expected to have a impact on interventional science and clinical practice. Trials covered in detail include: EBC TWO Five Year Follow-Up: Two-Stent Vs One for Large Bifurcation Lesions BASILICA Vs Chimney-Stenting for TAVR-Related Coronary… View more

An unintended consequence of the market success of drug-eluting stents has been a growing concern about their safety and safety-related costs. These devices have been so quickly and widely adopted that their market penetration already equals that of some of the most popular pharmaceutical drugs. Consequently, the absolute significance of even a low incidence of side effects becomes magnified by… View more

Vasa vasora are the blood supply of the artery itself, originating in the adventitia in response to the arterial wall’s nutritional requirements. The presence of a thicker tunica media or neointima requires the development of vasa vasorum to meet the metabolic demands of the arterial wall, since diffusion from the arterial lumen alone is insufficient. Over 40 years ago Wolinsky and Glagov… View more
