While catheter-induced spasm is considered to be rare, it needs to be ruled out (especially in cases of LM stenosis) to avoid unnecessary revascularization. We present a patient where the underlying tendency for coronary spasm was so high,...

Various percutaneous methods have been described for the retrieval of damaged stents; however, these methods can be complex and carry a risk of stent embolization or vascular damage. We present a simple and safe technique using a compliant...

Movement of the stent delivery system may potentially jeopardize precise stent deployment. We used a novel technology to objectively measure the relative intracoronary device motion in the different coronary segments throughout the cardiac...

Outcomes with use of lesion-modification strategies in the drug-eluting stent era have received limited study. We conducted a meta-analysis of 22 studies published between 2004-2016 reporting outcomes after use of rotational atherectomy,...
