Long-Term Risk of In-Stent Restenosis and Stent Fracture for Extracranial Vertebral Artery Stenting
ConclusionThe long-term ISR and stent fracture risks were high in extracranial VA stenosis treated with balloon-expandable bare metal stents. The risk of stent fracture increased over time during the follow-up period. Further studies should be conducted to clarify the long-term safety and efficacy of extracranial VA stenting.

The Potential Effects of New Stent Platforms for Coronary Revascularization in Patients With Diabetes
Publication date: May 2018 Source:Canadian Journal of Cardiology, Volume 34, Issue 5 Author(s): Gustavo S. Guandalini, Sripal Bangalore Coronary artery disease in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) is characterized by extensive atherosclerosis, longer lesions, and diffuse distal disease. Consequently, these patients have worse outcomes after coronary revascularization, regardless of the modality used. Traditionally, coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) has been regarded as more effective than percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with DM, likely because of more complete revascularization and protection ...

Treatment of femoro-popliteal lesions with scoring and drug-coated balloon angioplasty: 12-month results of the DCB-Trak registry.
CONCLUSION: Vessel preparation with a scoring-balloon and subsequent DCB-angioplasty was safe and effective in patients with femoro-popliteal lesions. Further multicenter trials have to validate these results. PMID: 29770768 [PubMed - in process]

Revascularization Techniques for Acute Basilar Artery Occlusion
ConclusionEndovascular treatment of ABO with underlying significant vertebrobasilar steno-occlusive lesions is effective and reasonably safe. Specific procedural strategies apply depending on individual patient pathology and anatomy. Although high rates of recanalization can be achieved, outcomes tend to be poor.

Long-Term Outcome of Balloon Angioplasty Without Stenting for Symptomatic Middle Cerebral Artery Stenosis
A recent randomized controlled trial demonstrated that aggressive medical management was superior to angioplasty with stenting for intracranial stenosis. The purpose of this study was to assess initial and long-term outcomes of balloon angioplasty without stenting for symptomatic middle cerebral artery (MCA) stenosis.

Contego Medical launches Neuroguard IEP trial
Contego Medical said today it launched the Performance I trial of its Neuroguard IEP 3-in-1 carotid stent and post-dilation balloon system with integrated embolic protection designed to treat carotid artery stenosis. The first patient in the trial has already been enrolled and treated at Skopje, Macedonia’s University Clinic of Cardiology by Dr. Saško Kedev, the Raleigh, N.C.-based company said. “We are pleased to initiate this trial evaluating the Neuroguard IEP System, the first of its kind for carotid stenting. Protection from stroke is key during carotid artery interventions. This 3-in-1 system includes a ...

Bringing Robotics into the Cath Lab to Protect Physicians
Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI, or angioplasty with stent) is a common procedure used to treat patients with obstructive coronary artery disease, with an estimated 600,000 procedures performed annually in the United States. PCI has a low risk of complications for patients, but that's not the case for clinicians. Patients receive a dose of radiation during a PCI procedure, which takes anywhere from 30 minutes to a few hours. Interventional cardiologists and cardiac catheterization laboratory personnel are exposed to ionizing radiation all day, every day. Protective measures, such as radiation safety caps, goggles...

Wingspan stent delivery catheter fracture and the TRAP technique for endovascular salvage.
Conclusions Wingspan delivery microcatheter fracture is a rare event. The TRAP technique may be used for successful retrieval of a retained foreign body. PMID: 29125024 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Multimodal Therapy for Non-Superacute Vertebral Basilar Artery Occlusion
Conclusion: For patients with posterior circulation stroke due to basilar artery or vertebral artery occlusion who present to the hospital 6 h after symptom onset and who exhibit deterioration of symptoms after drug treatment, multimodal recanalization of the occluded artery may be a feasible and safe therapy.Intervent Neurol 2017;6:254-262

Immediate and midterm results of balloon angioplasty for recurrent aortic coarctation in children aged < 1 year.
CONCLUSIONS: In this study, percutaneous balloon angioplasty for recoarctation in young infants aged<1 year improved aortic isthmus diameter with a low incidence of adverse event. However, the rate of further intervention is high, and is associated with a smaller balloon size. PMID: 29030063 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Endovascular treatment for AIS with underlying ICAD
Conclusions Despite AIS with underlying ICAD requiring a more complex, technically demanding recanalization strategy than traditional thromboembolic AIS, it appears safe, and good outcomes are obtainable.
