Objectives: Sufficient intramural drug concentrations with the use of porous balloon catheters can be achieved with additional vascular trauma only. However, effective delivery of a potent drug even in deeper layers of the vessel wall might outweigh these traumatic side effects. Given the porous bal

The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy of local heparin delivery to balloon angioplasty sites in an in vivo porcine model by using a newly designed angiotherapy catheter that allows for prolonged drug infusion while maintaining distal arterial perfusion. Protocols were designed to asse
## Abstract Myointimal hyperplasia after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) is a key component of the process of restenosis. The cβmyc is a critical cellβcycle division protein involved in the formation of neointima. We evaluated the longβterm impact of local delivery of cβmyc ne
