Fig. 14. Ostial encroachment in left circumflex artery (LCx) after placement of stent in ostial portion of left anterior descending (LAD) artery. Multiple angiographic views were taken in an effort to place stent distal to take-off of circumflex artery. Intravascular ultrasound shows that circumfle...
Subsequently PCI to mid LAD was done using Xience V-2.75 × 28 mm DES (Fig. 2B). The lesion was post dilated with a 3 mm balloon at 15 atm. Subsequently patient presented to us again after 5 months with unstable angina. There was no history of fever during the interim period ...
Before LHC, he got a loading dose of Ticagrelor 180 mg, and LHC showed early-mid and distal left anterior descending artery (LAD) disease with drug-eluting stent placement x1 each. Later that day (after four hou...

The change in vessel angulation after stent implantation is also associated with the occurrence of SF. Stent placement often straightens out the vessel; however, the vessel continues to return to its original shape. The force to return the vessel to its original shape may be stronger if the cha...
However, these extending exposed edges are triangular, with sharp apices pointing both upstream and downstream with regard to a graft placement location. Such a configuration of the exposed stent 20a, 20b increases the possibility of puncturing the vessel. In various embodiments shown in FIGS. 6a,...
One year earlier she had undergone percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with placement of two sirolimus eluting stents (SES) inproxymal (Cypher 3,0/33) and medial (Cypher 2,5/28) segment of the LAD (Figs. 1 and 2), with high pressure postdilatation with NC baloons (3,5/15 and 3...
For some applications, respective centers of the apertures are positioned less than a distance from a longitudinal midpoint of the fenestrated stent-graft, which distance is measured along a longitudinal axis of the fenestrated stent-graft and equals 40% of a longitudinal length of the fenestrated ...
Clinical experience reveals that stents 20′ formed with the round mandrel 29 do not lie against the vessel 2; instead, only a mid-section of the stent 20′ rests against the vessel 2, as shown in FIG. 5. Accordingly, when such a stent 20′ is present at either of the proximal 12 ...
