Drug-coated Balloons for Small Coronary Vessel Interventions: A Literature Review
Author(s): Raban Jeger , Thomas Nestelberger Added: 3 years ago
Coronary artery disease (CAD) remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality despite major improvements in primary and secondary prevention strategies. Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or surgical revascularisation may be indicated in many patients with acute or stable CAD.1 Since the first coronary intervention using catheter mounted balloons, percutaneous treatment of CAD has evolved… View more

Drug-eluting Balloons in CAD – Current and Future Perspectives
Author(s): Anouar Belkacemi , Pierfrancesco Agostoni , Michiel Voskuil , et al Added: 3 years ago
In the past few decades, major progress has been made in the percutaneous treatment of coronary artery disease. Initially, the emergence of balloon angioplasty offered an alternative option for coronary revascularisation. However, abrupt closure and restenosis caused by elastic recoil, neointimal hyperplasia and late remodelling were major drawbacks of balloon angioplasty.1 The use of drug… View more

Drug-coated Balloon-only Angioplasty
Author(s): Upul Wickramarachchi , Simon Eccleshall Added: 3 years ago
Percutaneous coronary interventional techniques and devices have evolved enormously since Gruntzig performed his first coronary angioplasty in 1977. 1 It is now the norm to treat patients with both acute coronary syndrome and stable coronary artery disease with drug-eluting stents. We intend to review the evidence and discuss potential benefits of drug-coated balloon-only angioplasty. These… View more

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is an innovative treatment modality for patients with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis (AS). After gaining initial market approval in Europe in 2007 and 4 years later in the US, TAVR continues to make large strides. An estimated 340,000 TAVR procedures have been completed in Europe in the immediate 5 years after approval and a further 10,000… View more
