In search for “healthy” landing zones for coronary stent placement: are the largest intrasegmental lumens adequate? Open
Optimal landing zones for stent placement should frequently be searched for beyond the culprit lesion segments although utilizing the largest intrasegmental lumens does not seem to cause immediate harm. However, TCFA at the landings should…

Diffuse non-obstructive coronary artery disease: two clinical faces of the same disease—a case report Open
Background Coronary artery disease has a long preclinical phase before manifesting itself clinically due to diffuse non-obstructive disease, stenoses, or thrombosis. Case summary We present a case of a middle-aged male complaining of atypi…

Complete Revascularization and Survival in STEMI Open
Patients with STEMI and MVD who underwent CR showed lower all-cause and cardiovascular death during follow-up than those who underwent IR. However, after adjustment for confounders, the real determinates of survival were independent of the…

Optical coherence tomography versus intravascular ultrasound for culprit lesion assessment in patients with acute myocardial infarction Open
Due to its superior resolution, OCT identifies TCFA more precisely. OCT more often shows remaining problems related to stent implantation than IVUS after angiographically guided PCI.
