متن کاملPercutaneous laser revascularization does not equal transmyocardial laser revascularization.
We appreciate the suggestions of Dr. Veyrat regarding our study (1) and agree that it would be of interest to trigger the computed tomographic (CT) images at the time point of maximal aortic valve opening as previously calculated with Doppler velocity-time integral. However, some technical and logistic considerations arising from the CT perspective should be taken into account. The heart rate m...
متن کاملLaser channels after percutaneous transmyocardial revascularization.
A62-year-old Brazilian white woman with a history of diabetes mellitus had undergone coronary artery bypass grafting to the left anterior descending coronary artery and right coronary artery in 1991. Four years later, she developed recurrent symptoms of angina; angiography revealed occlusion of both saphenous vein grafts. Her native circumflex system remained patent, but her native left anterio...
متن کاملMyocardial perfusion after transmyocardial laser revascularization.
Laser Revascularization To the Editor: I read with interest the report of Iskandrian et al.1 The authors described a case of improvement of perfusion in the right coronary artery territories (after transmyocardial revascularization), as well as in the territory of the left anterior descending artery and the circumflex artery (after CABG surgery). I’d like to ask the authors why they were sure t...
متن کاملTransmyocardial laser revascularization.
Low-powered lasers were first used in the early 1980s to produce transventricular channels as an adjunct to coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG). Early results were encouraging, but because of the combined procedure, could not be attributed directly to use of the laser [1]. High-powered lasers were introduced into clinical practice in 1990 [2]. These lasers are powerful enough to create ...
