Although the introduction of metallic stents has revolutionised the percutaneous treatment of coronary artery disease (CAD) and has been demonstrated to improve clinical outcomes as compared with plain old balloon angioplasty (POBA), the permanent presence of a metallic cage that stays on the vessel wall beyond its intended purpose of preventing acute recoil, is associated with a number of…

It is estimated that 15-20 % of all coronary interventional procedures involve side branches.1 Side branches are frequently related to periprocedural complications. Side branch occlusion or compromise appears to be the underlying cause of approximately 30 % of periprocedural myocardial infarctions.2 Periprocedural infarction in turn is an important predictor of midterm mortality3. Considering any…

Since Andreas Gruentzig presented his pioneering work in 1977, 'three revolutions' in percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) have characterised the field of interventional cardiology. Plain old balloon angioplasty (POBA) was refined by the introduction of bare metal stenting (BMS) (second revolution) to address the issue of acute vessel recoil and unacceptably high rates of restenosis. Drug…

The indications for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) have expanded steadily during the past years. After the days of the revascularisation of obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) by balloon angioplasty,1 the introduction of coronary stents has essentially contributed to PCI being one of the most frequently performed invasive therapeutic procedures worldwide. Bare metal stents (BMS)…
