We randomized 800 patients in a prospective study comparing the angiographic results, device usage and in-hospital outcome of balloon angioplasty of primary stenoses of native coronary vessels with low-compliant and highly compliant balloons. The cumulative incidence of prespecified clinical endpoin

The atherosclerotic lesion resistance to balloon inflation was assessed prospectively in 200 patients undergoing primary single-site balloon percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) by using an identical inflation protocol. This resistance was evaluated by the stenosis resolution pressu
To evaluate the results of long Micro Stent II (MS-XL) implantations, 119 MS-XLs were implanted in 102 patients (age, 62.83 years). Nineteen stents (16%) were implanted in saphenous vein grafts; 100 stents (84%) were implanted in native coronary arteries. Twenty-five patients (25%) were treated beca
