This complex case involved a patient with a flow-limiting lesion in a native coronary artery post bypass surgery. The new EluNIR stent system includes a stent with a low metal footprint that comprises struts of variable width: ultra-narrow struts having a width of 40µm and narrow supportive struts having a width of 72µm. The combination of different ...

Synthetic vascular grafts have provided life and limbesustaining therapy for millions of patients as both arterial bypass conduits and dialysis access grafts. Although this technology has been useful for many years, one of its frequent failure modes in the clinic is that of bacterial colonization and infection.1-3 Following implantation and hemodialysis access, ...
Manufactured vessels were implanted in 20 patients with symptomatic peripheral arterial disease as above-knee, femoral-to-popliteal arterial bypass conduits. ...
ABSTRACT Infection of prosthetic vascular grafts can manifest as pain, pseudoaneurysms, or arterial insufficiency in the leg. We present the case of a female patient with a medical history of a right external iliac artery endofibrosis, with a persistently infected synthetic iliofemoral bypass graft, which we replaced with a bioengineered human ...
A true no-option CLTI patient can be defined as a patient without any residual vessels in the foot that could be a target for distal bypass or angioplasty. Some patients develop this condition after embolization or failed repeat revascularization attempts; however, most no-option CLTI patients today are affected by small artery disease (SAD). ...
Your three main coronary arteries are responsible for bringing blood to the heart. When they start to become blocked, it can weaken the heart and eventually lead to a heart attack if the blockage isn't addressed and there isn't enough blood supply to the heart. On the left side of the heart, there are two coronary arteries responsible for providing rich blood supply to the heart to ensure it ...
Annotations Preoperative serum Gal-3 was measured in 1498 patients who underwent coronary artery bypass graft surgery and/or valve. Patients in the highest third of Gal-3 levels had 2.95-greater odds of developing KDIGO Stage 2 or 3 (p < 0.001) and 1.71-increased odds of developing KDIGO Stage 1 (p = 0.001), compared to the lowest third. ...
