Heavily calcified coronary artery lesions hinder device delivery and limit stent expansion, which is the most relevant predictor of stent failure. This may result in low procedural success and poor clinical outcomes. Coronary angiography has a limited ability to detect calcifications when planning an optimal percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) strategy. Intracoronary imaging can provide…

Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is an established alternative to surgical valve replacement in the management of calcified severe aortic stenosis in those with co-morbidities or adverse features (advanced age, impaired left ventricular function), or in those where open surgery may be associated with unfavourable technical features, such as previous sternotomy with a patent internal…

Much has been said about the allegedly final frontiers in interventional cardiology. Is it long-term outcome regarding percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for multivessel coronary artery disease? Is it the safety and efficacy of PCI versus coronary artery bypass grafting in patients with diabetes? There is definitely a movement within the interventional cardiology community that says it is…

In the 18th century, Edward Jenner and Caleb Hillier Parry, two British physicians, independently noticed that coronary ossification was often present in patients dying of ‘syncope anginosa’.1 Coronary angiography opened the possibility of expanding these observations to living patients and offered revascularisation options. During surgery, it was often possible to modify the position of the…

Coronary calcification has posed challenges to successful revascularisation since the development of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).1 Coronary artery calcification worsens clinical outcomes irrespective of the revascularisation strategy.2–4 Despite significant improvements in stent design over the past decades, including an improved ability to deliver a stent, severe calcification…
