Chronic mesenteric ischemia (CMI) occurs in the presence of slowly progressive, long-standing stenoses of the visceral arteries secondary to atherosclerosis. Angioplasty and stenting are emerging as therapeutic alternatives to surgery in treating CMI. The transradial approach is an attractive alternative ...
Some embodiments are directed to a deployment system for deploying a stent graft within a passageway, including a delivery catheter having an outer sheath, a proximal end, and a dis

In 2020, a study published in ACC Cardiovascular Imaging used OCT to perform retracement imaging of three epicardial coronary arteries (RCA, LAD, LCX). Analyzing the type and distribution of plaque, it is proposed that when the tube wall loses the normal three-layer structure, it is defined ...
The LAD artery supplies what part of the heart? Which coronary artery supplies the AV node? How many arteries in heart? What does the carotid artery do? What is the carotid artery? What is a functionally bicuspid aortic valve? What is cardiac muscle? What artery goes to Wernicke's area?
Since the patient was hemodynamically and electrically stable, he underwent conservative approach and after two months the septum returned to the normal size. During PCI on the LAD artery, the implantation of stents in the septal course with a short overlapping segment can result in coronary ...
First, we dilated the ostial ISR of the SVG to OM with a 3.50mm non-compliant balloon then delivered an 18.4gy dose of radiation for brachytherapy. We then brought her back for staged LM to LAD CTO PCI (J-CTO score 3). Dual injections demonstrated a beak within the stent in the LM ...
2C–E). PCI was done with a covered stent 3.5 × 26 mm (Graft master) to ostio-proximal LAD and from proximal to mid LAD with 2.75 × 23 mm Xience V DES (Fig. 2F, G). Subsequently the patient expired after 1.5 months due to diarrhea and sepsis complicating heart failure...

Stent fractures were more commonly reported in the RCA . The predisposition of the RCA for SF is possibly attributed to the vessel anatomy, due to the excessive tortuosity, angulation, or change of angulation after stent implantation. The next most common locations were the LAD, Cx, saphenous ...
