We report the adverse event rates after rotational atherectomy (RA) with contemporary drug-eluting stent implantation and compare RA to cutting balloon angioplasty and balloon-only angioplasty in the all-comers ADAPT-DES trial.

Intracoronary radiation therapy (ICRT) for in-stent restenosis within bare metal stents substantially reduces the risk of recurrence.1–3 However, target vessel failure remains a significant clinical problem for some patients. A higher...

Anticoagulation with REG1 allows for very early arterial sheath removal following cardiac catheterization without increasing the time to hemostasis or vascular access-site bleeding complications. Further studies are needed to determine...

Advances in interventional cardiology are reflected in the increased complexity of percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). This leads to an increasing use of fluoroscopic guidance in these procedures with a concomitant increase in concern...

Lower restenosis rates were shown in selected lesions with the first-generation Palmaz-Schatz stent when compared to conventional balloon angioplasty.1 However, because the Palmaz-Schatz stent and its delivery system were rigid, stent...
