Renal Artery Stenosis Treated Successfully With Shockwave Intravascular Lithotripsy.

ABSTRACT: Renal artery stenosis (RAS) typically involves varying degrees of calcification, and treatment can be fraught with risk and suboptimal results. Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) uses shockwaves to fragment calcium to facilitate angioplasty. We present a case of severe bilateral RAS successfully treated with IVL and stenting after conventional methods had failed. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.).

Treatment of heavily calcified coronary artery stenosis using 3.5 mm peripheral intravascular lithotripsy balloon: case series.

Project description:BackgroundPrevalence of coronary artery calcification is high among patients with advanced age, chronic kidney disease, and diabetes. Percutaneous coronary intervention of heavily calcified coronary artery remains a significant challenge for interventional cardiologists. Although there are several modalities available in treating calcified coronary arteries, lesion preparation of certain heavily calcified vessels remains inadequate prior to stent deployment and/or often associated with worse periprocedural adverse outcomes.Case summaryWe report feasibility and safety of 3.5 mm peripheral intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) for the treatment of severely calcified coronary stenosis in two patients after orbital atherectomy failed to debulk calcified plaque to enable stent deployment.DiscussionIntravascular lithotripsy has recently emerged as a therapeutic option in treating calcified peripheral artery disease. However, coronary IVL is currently available only in a few centres in the USA. Studies are ongoing in the safety and efficacy of this technology in treating coronaries.

Intravascular Lithotripsy for Calcified Left Main Artery Disease.

Project description:Left main coronary artery disease subtends a large area of potentially jeopardized myocardium. Percutaneous coronary intervention for severe left main coronary artery disease is a reasonable treatment option for select patients. Severe coronary artery calcium of the left main artery increases the complexity of percutaneous coronary intervention and is associated with increased risk of periprocedural complications and worse long-term clinical outcomes. Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) utilizes sonic pressure waves to modify severe coronary artery calcium and has emerged as a safe and effective alternative to coronary atherectomy. However, left main lesions were excluded from regulatory approval clinical trials of IVL. Herein, we review all available data regarding the use of IVL treatment for severe left main coronary artery disease.

Can Most Calcified Coronary Stenosis Be Optimized With Coronary Intravascular Lithotripsy?

Project description:Intravascular lithotripsy can be used as an effective therapy for lesion preparation in severely calcified lesions. The mechanism, as shown by optical coherence tomography, is calcium fractures. The aforementioned modification is performed with minimal risk of perforation, no-reflow and a low incidence of flow-limiting dissection and myocardial infarctions. Other techniques, such as cutting or scoring balloons and rotational atherectomy have also been shown to increase luminal diameter, but other complications, such as distal embolization, induced by these treatment modalities, are a source of concern. This review describes a single-center study of all-comer patients, including those with complex characteristics. This therapy is very effective, with a very low risk of complications. In this article, we characterize the mechanism of action of the intravascular lithotripsy catheter, its optical coherence tomography validation, clinical applications, and comparison with other calcium-modifying technologies, as well as future directions, which can be used to improve the technology.

Changing paradigm for treatment of heavily calcified coronary artery disease. A complementary role of rotational atherectomy and intravascular lithotripsy with shockwave balloon: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundManagement of heavily calcified coronary arteries is still a major challenge in interventional cardiology. Inadequate stent expansion in calcific lesions is the single most important predictor of stent thrombosis and in-stent restenosis. Rotational atherectomy (RA) is an important tool to modify the calcium burden but is associated with limitations and requires specific skills. Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) is a novel technique to treat calcified stenotic lesions and has been proposed as an alternative to RA with promising results.Case summaryWe report a case of a patient with severely calcified right coronary artery stenosis successfully treated with combination of RA and IVL.DiscussionIn this case, we demonstrate that the RA and IVL are complementary strategies, not sufficient on their own and not alternative to each other.

Coronary intravascular lithotripsy for coronary artery calcifications- systematic review of cases.

Project description:Background: Coronary artery calcification (CAC) is a pathological deposition of calcium in the intimal and medial layer of the arterial wall. A plethora of therapeutic calcium debulking techniques is available for the treatment of CAC, including orbital or rotational atherectomy, excimer lasers, cutting, and scoring balloons, which are associated with a soaring rate of complication and low efficacy. To this end, in 2016, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) posited that shockwave intravascular lithotripsy (S-IVL) technique can be employed with minimal complication. Methods: A retrospective review of cases received lithotripsy for calcified coronary artery disease was performed by using online data from PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials. The available search results were downloaded into an Endnote library and analyzed into two phases. Results: Out of 24 participants from case reports and series, Majority were found to be Male. There was no significant difference found in the mortality of patients undergoing IVL for the stenosis of the left main stem, left anterior descending, left circumflex artery, or diagonal branch. The mortality was found to be high among 6 patients with prior comorbidities and underwent more than 3 cycles of IVL (OR 37,95% Cl 1.54-886.04, P 0.02). Out of 24 patients, 2 (8.33%) patients developed complications such as vessel dissection (OR 3.4, 95% Cl 17.87-64.68, P 0.4). Conclusion: Shockwave intravascular lithotripsy (S-IVL) may be used in cases of the calcified disease to gain vessel lumen in order to deploy drug-eluting stents with PCI. The success of the DES implantation of IVL can be 100% with a minimal complication rate.

Intravascular lithotripsy: A novel option for severe calcification of coronary artery.

Project description:BackgroundSevere coronary artery calcification is associated with low success rate of interventional operation, perioperative adverse cardiac events, and poor prognosis, which is a major problem faced by operators. The existing therapy methods all have inherent limitations, such as unsatisfactory balloon crossability, inadequate balloon dilation, and so on. The emergence of intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) has brought the dawn of the treatment of calcified lesions by using unfocused acoustic pressure waves to fracture calcification in situ. And IVL is the only technology capable of targeting deep calcification.HypothesisIVL may have great clinical application values and potential prospects.MethodBased on the existing clinical evidence of IVL and traditional treatment ways, this review discusses the safety and efficacy of IVL. Combined with clinical practice, the precautions and coping strategies of IVL are analyzed. And the review improves the management algorithm of coronary calcification.ResultsIVL has extremely high safety and effectiveness for severe coronary calcification compared with other ways, and structural improvements of IVL will further expand its value.ConclusionsThe emergence of IVL could set off a revolution in the treatment of coronary artery calcification.
