Project description:MethodsBetween January 2016 and October 2018, sixty-four consecutive patients who underwent a total of 66 stenting procedures were screened for symptomatic and asymptomatic atherosclerotic VAOS. Of these patients, 57 had complete follow-up data. The baseline patient demographics and morphological features of the VAO were recorded. Potential factors influencing ISR, including conventional cerebrovascular disease risk factors, were assessed, together with outcome events including recurrent transient ischemic attack (TIA), stroke, and vascular-related mortality.ResultsThe average follow-up period was 13.2 ± 4.6 months. Technical success was achieved in all interventions. The degree of stenosis was reduced from 77.2 ± 6.1% to 13.7 ± 8.9% after the procedure. ISR was detected in eight treated vessels (14.0%) and occlusion in two (5.3%) arteries. Of the 57 patients, one had an ischemic stroke and 5 had TIAs. The angle of the VAO at the subclavian artery was associated with the risk of restenosis (preoperative, P = 0.04; postoperative, P = 0.02).ConclusionsStenting is a feasible and effective treatment for VAOS. The angle of the VAO at the subclavian artery may contribute to the development of ISR.

Project description:BackgroundThere is controversy regarding the effectiveness the of jailed wire technique (JWT) and jailed balloon technique (JBT) in preserving the side branch (SB) during treatment. This study compares the protective effect of JBT versus JWT on the SB ostium area in coronary bifurcation lesions using three-dimensional optical coherence tomography (3D-OCT).MethodsWe obtained data from coronary heart disease patients who received OCT-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for bifurcation lesions. The SB protection strategies were divided into JWT and JBT, with the latter further subdivided into active JBT (A-JBT) and conventional JBT (C-JBT). The primary endpoint was the SB ostium area difference measured by 3D-OCT before and after PCI. Partial correlation analysis and propensity score matching (PSM) was used to mitigate confounding biases.ResultsA total of 207 bifurcation lesions from 191 patients were analyzed, including 136 lesions treated with JWT and 71 lesions treated with JBT. The SB ostium area was significantly greater in the JBT group compared to the JWT group (0.41 ± 1.22 mm2 vs. -0.25 ± 1.40 mm2, p = 0.001). Following 1:1 PSM to adjust for 60 pairs, the difference between groups was not statistically significant (0.28 ± 1.06 mm2 vs. -0.02 ± 1.29 mm2, p = 0.165). Subgroup analysis revealed that A-JBT provided superior protection in both true (0.47 ± 1.22 mm2 vs. -0.10 ± 1.10 mm2, p = 0.011) and non-true bifurcation lesions (0.56 ± 1.43 mm2 vs. -0.38 ± 1.62 mm2, p = 0.030) over JWT, while C-JBT provided protection similar to JWT. A positive partial correlation was observed between the diameter of the jailed balloon and the increase in SB ostium area (r = 0.296, p = 0.013).ConclusionsOverall, A-JBT, but not C-JBT, provided better protection in bifurcation lesions compared to JWT. The larger diameter of the jailed balloon, rather than the application of higher pressure, enhanced the SB protection.

Project description:The authors report on a patient with recurrent angina at rest and on exertion 2 years after percutaneous revascularisation of the first diagonal branch (D1). Invasive coronary angiography with full functional testing was planned with the tentative diagnosis of coronary vascular dysfunction. Coronary angiography with functional testing revealed a haemodynamically significant intermediate stenosis at the D1-left anterior descending artery bifurcation. Optical coherence tomography demonstrated neointimal bridging and accelerated downstream atherosclerosis that was induced by protrusion of the previously implanted stent into the main branch. Although the overhanging stent was considered insignificant at first, it caused significant discomfort after 2 years. After provisional stenting of the main branch with crushing of the protruding stent and continuous medical treatment, the patient remained free of recurrent angina.

Project description:Background:It is still uncertain whether coronary bifurcations with lesions involving a large side branch (SB) should be treated by stenting the main vessel and provisional stenting of the SB (simple) or by routine two-stent techniques (complex). We aimed to compare clinical outcome after treatment of lesions in large bifurcations by simple or complex stent implantation. Methods:The study was a randomised, superiority trial. Enrolment required a SB≥2.75 mm, ≥50% diameter stenosis in both vessels, and allowed SB lesion length up to 15 mm. The primary endpoint was a composite of cardiac death, non-procedural myocardial infarction and target lesion revascularisation at 6 months. Two-year clinical follow-up was included in this primary reporting due to lower than expected event rates. Results:A total of 450 patients were assigned to simple stenting (n=221) or complex stenting (n=229) in 14 Nordic and Baltic centres. Two-year follow-up was available in 218 (98.6%) and 228 (99.5%) patients, respectively. The primary endpoint of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) at 6 months was 5.5% vs 2.2% (risk differences 3.2%, 95% CI -0.2 to 6.8, p=0.07) and at 2 years 12.9% vs 8.4% (HR 0.63, 95% CI 0.35 to 1.13, p=0.12) after simple versus complex treatment. In the subgroup treated by newer generation drug-eluting stents, MACE was 12.0% vs 5.6% (HR 0.45, 95% CI 0.17 to 1.17, p=0.10) after simple versus complex treatment. Conclusion:In the treatment of bifurcation lesions involving a large SB with ostial stenosis, routine two-stent techniques did not improve outcome significantly compared with treatment by the simpler main vessel stenting technique after 2 years.

Project description:ObjectivesThis study aimed to investigate the optimal jailed balloon inflation in the side branch during the modified jailed balloon technique for bifurcated lesions.BackgroundThe modified jailed balloon technique is one of the effective techniques to minimize the emergence of side branch (SB) compromise by preventing plaque or carina shifting during a single stent strategy in the main vessel with provisional SB treatment. However, there are no detailed studies on the method of optimal jailed balloon inflation.MethodsWe analyzed 51 consecutive patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for bifurcated lesions with a modified jailed balloon technique between September 2018 and December 2020. These 51 patients were divided into two groups according to the magnitude of inflation pressure of the jailed balloon: a higher pressure (HP) group and lower pressure (LP) group.ResultsNo significant differences in procedural outcomes were observed between the two groups. The findings of SB compromise were relatively common with our procedure (30.0% in the HP group; 33.3% in the LP group). The patterns of SB compromise such as dissection or stenosis increase were observed at similar frequencies between them. In particular, SB dissection was noted in the SB lesion with some plaque burden, irrespective of the magnitude of the jailed balloon inflation pressure. Univariate analysis showed that calcification in the main vessel and SB lesion length was significantly associated with SB compromise. Finally, all PCI procedures were successfully completed without any provisional stent deployment in SB.ConclusionsWe speculate that lesion characteristics rather than the PCI procedural factors may be critical determinants to cause SB compromise.

Project description:Background and purposeWhile drug-eluting stents (DES) have been widely applicated in coronary stenosis, uncertainty persists concerning the relative performance and clinical benefit in patients undergoing vertebral artery stenting when compared with a bare metal stent (BMS). We sought to compare in-stent restenosis (ISR) rates of DES and BMS in the treatment of vertebral artery ostium (VAO) stenosis.Materials and methodsThis study analyzed a single-center prospective cohort. Over 1.5-year period (January 2014-June 2015), 137 consecutive patients underwent VAO stenting involving deployment of 76 DES and 74 BMS. Patient demographics, comorbidities, stenosis severity, stent diameters and lengths, periprocedural complications, imaging and duplex ultrasonography follow-up and recurrent symptoms were assessed.ResultsTechnical success was achieved in all patients. Mean VAO stenosis at presentation were 82.4 ± 7.2% in the DES group and 83.3 ± 7.5% in the BMS group and were reduced to 12.5 ± 4.5% and 11.3 ± 4.0%. Mean stent diameter was 3.53 ± 0.40 mm in DES and 5.05 ± 0.40 mm in BMS (p < 0.0001). Mean follow-up was 12.3 months for DES and 11.7 months for BMS. The use of DES was associated with significant lower ISR rates compared with BMS (18.4% vs. 31.1%; OR = 2.628, p = 0.021). Recurrent symptoms rates were similar in DES vs. BMS (2.6% vs 2.7%, p = 0.680). Stent type and stent diameter were independent risk factors for ISR (P = 0.026).ConclusionOur results suggest superior efficacy of deploying DES for the treatment of VAO stenosis with lower ISR rates as compared to BMS, but do not support significant differences in periprocedural risk and recurrent symptoms rate.

Project description:ObjectivesStenting of the malignant hilar biliary obstruction (MHBO) area for bile drainage is challenging. Bilateral stenting techniques of stent-in-stent (SIS) and stent-by-stent (SBS) have shown promising results. This study evaluates the efficacy of different stenting methods for MHBO.DesignA meta-analysis was performed to determine the efficacy of SIS and SBS stenting strategies for MHBO.Data sources and methodsMedical databases such as PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Scopus, were searched up to August 2023. We selected eligible studies reporting the data on technical and clinical success, adverse events, and incidence of re-obstruction (RO) of SBS and SIS groups in MHBO patients. We compared the outcomes of SBS and SIS groups.ResultsA total of 9 studies comparing the data of 545 patients (268 in the SBS group and 277 in the SIS stenting group) were analyzed. There was no significant difference (p > 0.05) in the odds ratio (OR) of Re-obstruction (RO) 0.87 (95% confidence interval (95% CI) 0.6-1.25), technical success 0.58 (95% CI 0.16-2.11), clinical success 1.13 (95% CI 0.62-2.07), and adverse events 1.53 (95% CI 0.88-2.64). The mean difference in procedure time was -12.25 min (95% CI -18.39, -6.12), and the hazard ratio of stent patency was 1.22 (95% CI 1.01-1.47), favoring SBS, with high heterogeneity (I 2 = 94%). There was no significant difference in HR for survival 1.05 (95% CI 0.95-1.16) with high heterogeneity (I 2 = 84%).ConclusionCompared with SIS, SBS showed better stent patency with comparable technical and clinical success and adverse events.Prospero registrationThe registration number for this study on PROSPERO is CRD42024523230.

Project description:ObjectiveRecent studies evaluating plaque protrusion at carotid artery stenting (CAS) using optical coherence tomography showed not a few cases of plaque protrusion when using double-layer micromesh stents. We report a case of symptomatic internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis with at-risk unstable plaques in which CAS was successfully performed using a stent-in-stent technique by the combined use of a closed-cell stent and a dual-layer micromesh stent.Case presentationAn 87-year-old Japanese man with dysarthria and right hemiparesis was diagnosed with atheromatous cerebral embolism caused by severe left ICA stenosis on MRI and DSA. MRI with T1-weighted black blood methods showed high intensities in the plaques of the left ICA, suggesting unstable plaque characteristics with intraplaque hemorrhage components. On day 20, CAS was performed. After the pre-stent dilation under proximal and distal protection, a Carotid WALLSTENT was placed to cover the stenotic lesion. Then, a CASPER Rx was placed from the proximal left ICA to the common carotid artery to cover the Carotid WALLSTENT. Although visible plaque debris was recognized in the aspirated blood, the debris became invisible after aspiration of 1300 mL. Postoperative angiography showed enough dilation of the left ICA, with no plaque protrusion or acute stent thrombosis. The patient had an uneventful postoperative course and was discharged without any neurological sequelae.ConclusionThe present case suggests that the combined stent-in-stent technique using a closed-cell stent and a micromesh stent can be considered as one of the treatment strategies for preventing plaque protrusion and procedural ischemic complications in patients with high-risk carotid plaques.

Project description:AimThe aim of this study was to explore the potential intraprocedural benefits of the Proximal Side Optimization (PSO) technique by Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT).MethodsA case series of 10 consecutive true bifurcation lesions, with severe long pathology of long side branch (SB), were randomly assigned to be treated by standard DK Crush procedure (non-PSO group) as compared to DK Crush in PSO modification (PSO group). The data from OCT investigation before crushing of the SB Drug-Eluting Stent (DES), after crushing, after first kissing balloon inflation (KBI), and after final angiography were compared between the two groups (Public trials registry ISRCTN23355755).ResultsAll 10 cases were successfully treated by the assigned technique. The two groups were similar in terms of indications for the procedure, bifurcation angle, and stent dimensions. As compared to the non-PSO, the PSO group showed larger proximal SB stent areas (5.8 ± 1.8 vs. 4.5 ± 0.5 mm2; p = 0.02), the larger delta between distal and proximal stent areas before crush (1.5 ± 0.7 vs. 0.6 ± 0.5 mm2; p = 0.004), and the larger Space of Optimal Wiring (SOW) after Crush (5.3 ± 1.8 vs. 2.5 ± 1.1 mm2; p = 0.02). The gaps in scaffolding within the ostial segment of the Side Branch DES were found in two patients from the non-PSO group.ConclusionThe DK Crush in PSO modification results in larger SB DES and SOW areas with better apposition to the vessel wall. As result, the SB DES acquires a funnel shape, which reduces the risk of passage outside the SB stent struts during re-wiring, thus, allowing predictable and secure results.
