Transcatheter occlusion of coronary to bronchial anastomosis by detachable balloon combined with coronary angioplasty at same procedure.

چکیده
The first case of non-operative occlusion of a large coronary to bronchial anastomosis is described. The patient who had severe angina had also a critical stenosis of the anterior descending coronary artery which was successfully dilated by an angioplasty procedure. An occluding balloon was detached in the large distal circumflex coronary artery, beyond all the normal branches. At a repeat catheterisation study seven months later the balloon was intact and in position, and the anastomosis remained occluded.

Transcatheter embolization in the treatment of coronary artery fistulas.
Seven patients with a coronary artery fistula underwent percutaneous transcatheter embolization (five were male and two female; the age range was 2 to 67 years [median 17]). Three patients were symptomatic. The left to right shunt ranged from 1.6 to 2.6:1. In six patients, the fistula was an isolated congenital anomaly; in one, it was acquired. The fistula arose from branches of the left (n = 5...
متن کاملLeft anterior descending coronary artery occlusion during transcatheter pulmonary valve implantation: successful rescue percutaneous revascularization.
A 34-year-old woman was referred for transcatheter pulmonary valve implantation. She had been exposed to radiotherapy for Hodgkin’s disease and underwent a Ross procedure 16 years before for post-endocarditis aortic regurgitation. Test-balloon angioplasty with a 22 20-mm Atlas balloon (Bard Peripheral Vascular, Tempe, Arizona) inflated to 14 atm, showed no coronary compression (Figure 1A, Onlin...
متن کاملTranscatheter closure of coronary artery fistulas.
BACKGROUND Transcatheter closure of coronary artery fistulas has emerged as a successful alternative to surgery. We describe various techniques and short-term findings in 15 patients who were taken up for transcatheter closure of these fistulas. METHODS AND RESULTS Fifteen patients (aged 2-55 years; 12 males) with coronary artery fistulas underwent percutaneous transcatheter closure between J...
متن کاملUse of interlocking detachable coils in embolization of coronary arteriovenous fistulas.
Thirteen patients underwent transcatheter closure of coronary artery fistulas using interlocking detachable coils alone or combined with fibered coils. Complete occlusion was achieved in 92% of patients; although inadvertent embolization of coils occurred in 23% of patients, all these coils were easily retrieved using snares.
متن کاملCombined percutaneous balloon dilatation of the aortic valve and coronary angioplasty.
A 75 year old man with severe angina caused by aortic stenosis and coronary artery disease was considered to be unsuitable for cardiac surgery after the recent removal of a bronchial carcinoma. Combined percutaneous balloon dilatation of the aortic valve and right coronary angioplasty considerably ameliorated the patient's angina.
