Efficacy of intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) in coronary stenosis with severe calcification: A multicenter systematic review and meta‐analysis Catheter. Cardiovasc. Interv. (IF 2.3) Pub Date : 2024-03-14 Marios Sagris, Nikolaos Ktenopoulos, Kyriakos Dimitriadis, Angelos Papanikolaou, Andreas Tzoumas, Dimitrios Terentes‐Printzios, Andreas Synetos, Stergios Soulaidopoulos, Michael Lichtenberg, Grigorios Korosoglou, Benjamin Honton, Dimitris Tousoulis, Costas Tsioufis, Konstantinos Toutouzas
BackgroundWith heavily calcified coronary and peripheral artery lesions, lesion preparation is crucial before stent placement to avoid underexpansion, associated with stent thrombosis or restenosis and patency failure in the long‐term. Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) technology disrupts superficial and deep calcium by using localized pulsative sonic pressure waves, making it to a promising tool for

Understanding large vessel perforation requiring treatment with covered stent implantation: A case series Catheter. Cardiovasc. Interv. (IF 2.3) Pub Date : 2024-03-12 Kara Denby, Myron Zaczkiewicz, Sukriti Banthiya, Kambis Mashayekhi, Jaikirshan Khatri
Large vessel perforation during coronary intervention is a rare but potentially fatal complication, often requiring implantation of a covered stent for resolution. While technology is improving, the long-term patency of covered stents is less than drug-eluting stents, and implantation of covered stents should be used sparingly. Large vessel perforations are complex and often the perforation inflow

The J-chronic total occlusion (CTO) channel score can predict guidewire tracking of the collateral channels (CCs), but its efficacy in predicting microcatheter tracking has never been tested in the setting of retrograde CTO-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Balloon-expandable transcatheter heart valves for treatment of aortic valve stenosis in patients with large aortic annuli: Evaluation of deployment balloon overfilling strategies Catheter. Cardiovasc. Interv. (IF 2.3) Pub Date : 2023-11-30 Yvonne Schneeberger, Harun Sarwari, Benedikt Köll, Till J. Demal, Oliver D. Bhadra, Ina von der Heide, Laura Hannen, David Grundmann, Lisa Voigtländer, Lara Waldschmidt, Johannes Schirmer, Simon Pecha, Niklas Schofer, Nils Sörensen, Stefan Blankenberg, Hermann Reichenspurner, Lenard Conradi, Moritz Seiffert, Andreas Schaefer
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) using balloon-expandable (BE) transcatheter heart valves (THV) in aortic annuli above 29 mm includes particular procedural steps, mainly involving overfilling of the deployment balloon. Data on overfilling strategies in clinical daily practice is scarce. We herein aimed for a retrospective description of utilized overfilling strategies in those patients

Cusp overlap method for self-expanding transcatheter aortic valve replacement Catheter. Cardiovasc. Interv. (IF 2.3) Pub Date : 2023-11-27 Talal F. Aljabbary, Ikki Komatsu, Tomoki Ochiai, Stephen E. Fremes, Noman Ali, Lucas Burke, Mark D. Peterson, Neil P. Fam, Harindra C. Wijeysundera, Sam Radhakrishnan
Conduction disturbances and the need for permanent pacemaker (PPM) implantation remains a common complication for transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), particularly when self-expanding (SE) valves are used.

Mechanical circulatory support versus vasopressors alone in patients with acute myocardial infarction and cardiogenic shock undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention Catheter. Cardiovasc. Interv. (IF 2.3) Pub Date : 2023-11-23 Awad I. Javaid, Joel E. Michalek, Aleksandra B. Gruslova, Serene A. Hoskins, Chowdhury H. Ahsan, Marc D. Feldman
Previous studies have compared Impella use to intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) use in patients with acute myocardial infarction and cardiogenic shock (AMI-CS) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Our objective was to compare clinical outcomes in patients with AMI-CS undergoing PCI who received Impella (percutaneous left ventricular assist device) without vasopressors, IABP without vasopressors

Balloon pulmonary angioplasty for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension due to septic emboli Catheter. Cardiovasc. Interv. (IF 2.3) Pub Date : 2023-11-22 Zachary L. Steinberg, Samuel G. Rayner, Peter J. Leary
We present the case of a 28-year-old woman with a history of tricuspid valve endocarditis leading to chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) with multiple pulmonary artery chronic total occlusions (CTOs) due to septic emboli. Following a multidisciplinary care discussion, the patient was brought forward for balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) with successful revascularization of all chronically

Optical Coherence Tomography Predictors of SIde Branch REstenosis after unprotected Left Main bifurcation angioplasty using double kissing crush technique (OP-SIBRE LM Study) Catheter. Cardiovasc. Interv. (IF 2.3) Pub Date : 2023-11-22 Ankush Gupta, Abhinav Shrivastava, Sanya Chhikara, Mamas A. Mamas, Rajesh Vijayvergiya, Ajay Swamy, Nalin K. Mahesh, Navreet Singh, Nitin Bajaj, Balwinder Singh, Daulat Singh Meena, Chandraket Singh
Among the two stent strategies, contemporary evidence favors double kissing crush technique (DKC) for complex unprotected distal left main bifurcation (UdLMB) lesions. However one of the major challenges to these lesions is side branch (SB) restenosis.

Computed tomography derived anatomical predictors of vascular access complications following transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve implantation: A systematic review Catheter. Cardiovasc. Interv. (IF 2.3) Pub Date : 2023-11-22 Vitaliy Androshchuk, Omar Chehab, Bernard Prendergast, Ronak Rajani, Tiffany Patterson, Simon Redwood
Vascular complications after percutaneous transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) are associated with adverse clinical outcomes and remain a significant challenge.
