Incidence of vascular complications in intraaortic balloon counterpulsation is still high
despite major refinements in catheter design and techniques. One hundred twenty-six …

High pressure inflation after coronary stent placement has been employed to achieve
optimal stent deployment. However, it is not clear whether this is due to more radial force …

The paclitaxel-eluting balloon is an emerging percutaneous coronary angioplasty tool which
aim is to prevent restenosis by delivering a high intravessel paclitaxel dose during balloon …

Background In current percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) practice, the balloon used
in the procedure should be deflated a short time after balloon dilation to avoid having …

In this prospective randomized trial we explored the possibility of different procedural
outcomes with regard to compliant (polyolefin copolymer (POC)), and non-compliant …

With improved results of drug-eluting stents (DES), stentless PCI is an option only in a
limited number of patients. These include patients for release of ischemia before surgical …

Drug-coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty for femoropopliteal arteries could dramatically
improve primary patency. However, DCB-induced downstream particle embolization is …
