A trailblazer in interventional cardiology, Dr. Antonio Colombo combines his vast experience with that of Goran Stankovic and distinguished colleagues to share tips and tricks for dealing with diseased coronary arteries. Whether discussing his 'crushing and kissing' techniques or the stenting of tortuous vessels in the elderly, Dr. Colombo and his colleagues' texts and case commentaries provide the reader with succinct and simple advice based on personal experience. They provide the most comprehensive and practical guide available for those involved in coronary artery stenting. The images are all down-loadable in Powerpoint and will be of tremendous use to instructors and students alike.
This Renal Denervation handbook is a practical “all you need to know” guide to treating patients with hypertension. Renal Denervation is a revolutionary, minimally invasive trans-catheter intervention that has emerged as a safe and effective therapeutic companion for the limited number of patients with resistant hypertension and the huge population of those who “resist” to take their prescribed medications. Written by the world’s most recognized experts in the field, the handbook provides a review of the scientific bases of the therapy, reveals practical instructions on how to select the right patients and perform the procedure, and analyzes clinical results in a direct, easy to understand style. This guide is the resource for all healthcare providers interested in the modern management of hypertension and successfully managing the number one risk factor for stroke, myocardial infarction, and heart failure worldwide.
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
Chronic total occlusions (CTO) are common, and found in approximately one third of patients with significant coronary artery disease who undergo angiography. CTO constitute one of the main criteria when selecting between angioplasty and bypass surgery. Angioplasty for CTO is intricate and requires excellent operator skill, but even when perfor
