Pan Vascular Medicine
The textbook provides an interdisciplinary and integrated perspective of modern vascular cure. Written by experts the text proceeds from fundamental principles to advanced concepts. The book is divided into four parts, each focusing on different basic concepts of vascular cure. All fundamental principles of the area are clearly explained to facilitate vascular diagnostics and treatment in clinical practice. It is aimed at junior practitioners and experts.
Complications of Interventional Cardiovascular Procedures
Complications of Interventional Cardiovascular Procedures is a comprehensive atlas that covers the potential complications for the full range of interventional procedures. The emphasis throughout is on a practical, useful presentation with an "atlas" type of format. Each complication is presented first with a case example: case description; how it was dealt with; why it happened; and a discussion of whether and how it could have been avoided in this case. Following is a broader presentation providing more context on why the specific complication may occur; how to anticipate it; how to avoid or minimize it if possible and how to address it if it occurs. Key points in bulleted format are prese...
Aortic Valve Transcatheter Intervention
Aortic Valve Transcatheter Intervention Calcific aortic stenosis (AS) is the most common heart valve anomaly, with a largely age-dependent prevalence, a calculated annual incidence rate in the range of 4-5% in general populations and up to 6% in patients aged 75 years and over. Surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) was previously the only option available to patients with symptomatic, severe aortic stenosis. After the first-in-human transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) was performed by Alain Cribier in 2002, the treatment strategy for patients with symptomatic AS has been revolutionized. Since then, TAVI has grown exponentially, as a result of accruing evidence demonstrating saf...
Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation
This book will explore the many aspects of the transcatheter aortic valve replacement, from the clinical data supporting the observed worldwide diffusion, to the technicalities that evolved over time in parallel with the continuous new iterations of available devices. Both the interventionalists looking for a reference to literature milestones and the interventionalists searching for the description and execution of the procedure will find what they are looking for. Many answers will be there through the pages, but also some pending questions to fuel future developments and to further refine a procedure that truly changed the landscape of cardiology.
Problem Oriented Approaches in Interventional Cardiology
Interventional operators generally expect complications when the coronary anatomy is tortuous; however, it is normal anatomy with what appear angiographically as 'regular' lesions that can cause great difficulty and additional morbidity. Drs Colombo's and Stankovic's team of first-rate, globally-recognized interventional cardiologists offer advice
Strategic Approaches in Coronary Intervention
Updated to include the newest devices and procedures, this practical reference is a clinically oriented guide to interventional cardiology. Chapters by the foremost experts present step-by-step approaches to specific clinical problems and offer guidelines for selecting the most appropriate device and technique. The authors' recommendations are backed by their extensive experience and by evidence-based clinical trials. This Third Edition describes the latest stents and stenting procedures—including local drug delivery with coated stents—and provides state-of-the-art information on local myocyte injection, distal protection devices, peripheral vascular intervention, and new adjunctive therapies. The concluding chapter previews future developments in the field.
The Carotid and Supra-Aortic Trunks
Carotid Angioplasty and Stenting (CAS) is a new approach to treat a carotid stenosis. This new book provides interventional cardiologists, both as beginners or fully experienced, with a reference on all aspects of angioplasty and stenting of the carotid and supra-aortic trunks. Focusing on both the entire range of angioplasty and stenting treatment options for the surgeon treating patients on the operating table, and the range of radiological techniques used for the cardiologist to diagnose carotid artery stenosis (CAS) and associated conditions, this important book describes the best indications, the different techniques, the results, and also the limitations of CAS based on randomized studies and particularly the last published data (CREST study). Suitable for both novice and experienced interventionalists, it also addresses diagnosis of a carotid stenosis and complications from CAS and how to manage them.
Local Drug Delivery for Coronary Artery Disease
Restenosis remains the Achilles heel of Percutaneous Coronary Interventions. Numerous pharmacological agents have been tested in order to reduce acute thrombosis and the hyperproliferative cellular response, and drug eluting stents-using the stent as a platform for local drug delivery-are now considered a significant breakthrough in interventional cardiology. Pioneers in the field, the editors of Local Drug Delivery for Coronary Artery Disease have assembled an excellent team of contributors who offer their experience with threatened vessel closure and restenosis, acute thrombosis, hyperproliferative cellular response, stents and local drug delivery. They share their expertise on all aspects of the field, including a discussion of results from preclinical and clinical studies, and they examine alternative methods of molecular delivery to the vessel wall. With coverage of the most current methods and applications, as well as a host of photographs illustrating their implementation, this book will serve as an excellent reference for cardiologists, pharmacologists, cardiac surgeons, and trainees.
Ischemic Heart Disease
This book describes the different aspects of ischemic heart disease, one of the leading causes of death in industrialized countries, and whose growing prevalence represents a major challenge in terms of short- and long-term management and surveillance. This volume offers a comprehensive discussion of the state-of-the-art diagnostic imaging options, of disease risk stratification, selection of candidates for surgical intervention, percutaneous revascularitation, mechanical assist devices implantation. Recently, the morbidity and mortality of ischaemic heart disease have substantially improved because of the progress in therapeutic strategies, represented by the dramatic evolution of percutane...
