Defining device success for PCI trials
05 Feb 2020
Percutaneous coronary intervention with implantation of drug-eluting stents has become the most commonly performed revascularisation procedure in patients with symptomatic coronary artery disease. Continuous iterations of coronary devices incorporating changes in platform materials, geometry, strut thickness, drug release mechanisms and antiproliferative drugs have progressively reduced the rate...

Oval stenting in left pulmonary artery stenosis: a novel double balloon technique to prevent airway compression in single ventricle
29 Jan 2020
Left pulmonary artery (LPA) stenosis is common in patients with cavopulmonary connections. Stent implantation is the treatment of choice but may be complicated or contraindicated by left main bronchus (LMB) compression due to limited retro-aortic space after a Damus-Kaye-Stansel (DKS) or Norwood operation. This study describes...

First-in-man randomised comparison of the Angiolite durable fluoroacrylate polymer-based sirolimus-eluting stent vs a durable fluoropolymer-based everolimus-eluting stent in patients with CAD: the ANGIOLITE trial
14 Jan 2020
The durable fluoroacrylate polymer-based sirolimus-eluting stent (Angiolite SES) has shown promising preclinical and clinical results regarding inflammatory vascular reaction and neointimal healing. J. Moreu, et al. aimed to compare performance between the Angiolite SES and an everolimus-eluting stent (EES) in patients with coronary artery disease.
