Endovascular b-Radiation to Reduce Restenosis After Coronary Balloon Angioplasty
Background—In the porcine overstretch injury model of restenosis, endovascular b-radiation reduces neointima formation. To determine whether this therapy could be applied to patients with coronary artery disease, a special device was developed to allow delivery of 12 encapsulated Sr/Y sources, measuring a total of 30 mm, to various sites within the coronary arterial tree. This study was designe...
متن کاملClinical trials of restenosis after coronary angioplasty.
Since its introduction more than 10 years ago, coronary angioplasty has been limited by a 30-40% incidence of restenosis, typically developing within 3-6 months of the procedure.12 The interactive biological processes responsible for re-stenosis have generally been attributed to varying degrees of three pathological mechanisms. First, depending on the relative fibrocellular, sclerotic, and calc...
متن کاملRestenosis after coronary angioplasty for rapidly progressive coronary stenosis.
OBJECTIVES We hypothesized that percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty performed on coronary stenoses that have demonstrated rapid angiographic progression would be associated with a high risk of restenosis. BACKGROUND High rates of restenosis have been documented after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty of unstable lesions and of lesions that recur rapidly after a success...
متن کاملCytomegalovirus and restenosis after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty.
Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty To the Editor: Manegold et al1 compared the incidence of prior cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection and the risk of restenosis after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) in 92 consecutive patients. A total of 65% of these patients were positive for IgG CMV antibodies. At 6 months, angiographic restenosis was similar in CMV-positive and ...
متن کاملN-3 fatty acids do not prevent restenosis after coronary angioplasty: results from the CART study. Coronary Angioplasty Restenosis Trial.
OBJECTIVES The aim of the study was to investigate whether omega-3 fatty acids (n-3 FA) reduce the occurrence of restenosis after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty. BACKGROUND Meta-analyses have shown significant reduction of restenosis after coronary angioplasty upon supplementation with n-3 FA. METHODS In a prospective, placebo-controlled, double-blind study, 500 patients wer...
