Abstract

Angioplasty of aorto-ostial stenosis is associated with lower procedural success and a higher complication rate. The aim of the present study was to compare the acute and long-term results of balloon and new device angioplasty in 110 consecutive patients with right coronary ostial lesions. Patients were divided into 3 groups according to the angioplasty device used: group I (balloon only, n = 26), group II (debulking devices including excimer laser, directional and rotational atherectomy, n = 26), group III (stent, n = 58). Procedural success was highest in group III (96%) followed by group I (88%), and group II (77%). In-hospital complications were similar among the groups (p = NS). Patients in group III achieved the highest acute gain (2.61 mm) followed by groups II (1.92 mm), and I (1.39 mm, p <0.05). During follow up, target lesion revascularization and/or bypass surgery was required in 24% of patients in group III compared with 47% and 40% in groups I and II, respectively (p <0.05). Cardiac-event free survival was highest in the stent group (74%, p <0.005) and was similar between the balloon (39%) and debulking device groups (45%). Thus, among the currently available technologies, stenting of right coronary ostial lesions ...Continue Reading

Cardiovascular Diseases: Risk Factors

Cardiovascular disease is a significant health concern. Risk factors include hypertension, obesity, dyslipidemia and smoking. Women who are postmenopausal are at an increased risk of heart disease. Here is the latest research for risk factors of cardiovascular disease.
