Long-term outcomes of angiographically confirmed coronary stent thrombosis: results from a multicentre California registry.
CONCLUSIONS: Age, active smoking, diabetes mellitus and bifurcation disease are independently associated with long-term MACCE over a five-year follow-up period. PMID: 26093838 [PubMed - in process]

Contrast ‐induced encephalopathy following cardiac catheterization
ConclusionsCIE is an important clinical entity to consider in the differential diagnosis of stroke following cardiac catheterization. Given that prognosis is excellent with supportive management only, physicians should be aware of it, and consider it prior to initiating thrombolysis. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Trans ‐ventricular catheter device‐based closure of postmyocardial infarction ventricular septal defect following coronary artery bypass grafting: A staged hybrid approach
AbstractA 66 ‐year‐old woman with a history of hypertension, ischemic stroke, and rheumatoid arthritis presented to the hospital with severe angina pectoris and dyspnea and was diagnosed with myocardial infarction (MI). Coronary angiography revealed multisystem coronary artery occlusive disease. Due to refra ctory myocardial ischemia/evolving MI, emergency coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) was undertaken. Intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography additionally revealed an apical muscular ventricular septal defect (VSD). Concomitant VSD repair was deferred due to the absence of surface evidence of transmural M...

Surgical Myocardial Revascularization with a Composite T-graft from the Left Internal Mammary Artery —Comparison of the Great Saphenous Vein with the Radial Artery
Conclusion CABG with a composite T-graft between LIMA and a segment of SV may be comparable to bypass surgery with a composite T-graft between LIMA and RA. This might be true in terms of morbidity and mortality over an intermediate-term observation period. The results of our studies give rise to the hypothesis that the decision not to perform aortic bypass anastomosis may be more important than the choice of graft material.
