A total of 147 stents were implanted (in overlapping manner in 76% of vessels) in a single coronary artery in 59 patients (60 vessels, 97 lesions, 2.45 stents/vessel) over a period of 18 mo using high pressure stent deployment without ultrasound guidance. The indications for stenting were suboptimal

The objective of this study was to assess the angiographic and clinical outcome of patients with coronary in-stent restenosis treated with balloon angioplasty with provisional stenting. The study included 375 consecutive patients with in-stent restenosis managed with balloon angioplasty alone or com
Intracoronary irradiation emerges as a promising method in a variety of restenosis prone coronary lesions. We report the acute and long-term clinical, angiographic, and ICUS follow-up of a patient who underwent a successful angioplasty with stent placement in a chronic coronary occlusion with adjuva
A 45-year-old white male, 35-year status postrepair of coarctation of the aorta, presented with symptomatic recoarctation of the aorta. He was treated successfully by implantation of a single Palmaz stent. The pressure gradient was abolished with complete resolution of symptoms. Seven months postste
Optimal stent expansion is considered imperative today in order to prevent subacute stent thrombosis and allows us to minimize antithrombotic therapy. The short-term angiographic and long-term clinical follow-up of a patient with a suboptimally expanded vein graft balloon expandable stent is present
