Successful Retrieval of an Entrapped Rotablator Burr by Using a Guideliner Guiding Catheter and a Snare.
Although burr entrapment is a rare complication of rotablation, it is extremely difficult to retrieve a stuck entrapped burr without surgical intervention. There are several techniques typically employed to retrieve an entrapped burr, using bailout endovascular approaches. Herein we have presented a new retrieval method involving a Guideliner child-in-mother catheter combined with a snare, whic...
متن کاملPredicting the no-reflow phenomenon following successful percutaneous coronary intervention.
In the setting of acute myocardial infarction, early and adequate reopening of an infarct-related artery is not necessarily followed by a complete restoration of myocardial perfusion. This condition is usually defined as 'no-reflow'. The pathophysiology of no-reflow is multifactorial since extravascular compression, microvascular vasoconstriction, embolization during percutaneous coronary inter...
متن کاملPrimary percutaneous coronary intervention: devices to prevent no-reflow phenomenon
Primary percutaneous coronary intervention, where available, has become the therapy of choice in myocardial reperfusion during ST-elevation myocardial infarction. However, in a significant proportion of patients, owing to a high thrombus burden, myocardial perfusion is not fully achieved in the epicardial vessel. This phenomenon has been attributed predominantly to the distal embolization of th...
متن کاملPercutaneous transluminal coronary rotary ablation with Rotablator (European experience).
This study reports the results from 3 European centers using rotary ablation with Rotablator, a device that is inserted into the coronary artery and removes atheroma by grinding it into millions of tiny fragments. Rotary ablation was performed in 129 patients. Primary success (reduction in percent luminal narrowing greater than 20%, residual stenosis less than 50%, without complications) was ac...
متن کاملSuccessful retrieval of an unexpanded coronary stent from the left main coronary artery during primary percutaneous coronary intervention.
INTRODUCTION Dislodgement and embolization of the new generation of coronary stents before their deployment are rare but could constitute a very serious complication. CASE OUTLINE We report a case of a stent dislodgement into the left main coronary artery during the primary coronary intervention of infarct related left circumflex artery in a patient with acute myocardial infarction. The dislo...
