Coronary bifurcation lesions with a large proximal segment and involvement of both ostia are best suitable for the kissing stent technique. Coronary bifurcation lesions with a small proximal ...

Anomalous location of coronary ostium within aortic root or near proper aortic sinus of Valsalva (for each artery): (i) high, (ii) low, (iii) commissural Anomalous location of coronary ostium ...

Diagnosis was made in the majority of cases via coronary angiography. The mean height of the left coronary artery ostium in cases of obstruction was approximately 10 mm, and the mean diameter of the ...

a new registry study confirms that preventive stent implantation across the coronary ostia is safe, with good survival and low rates of stent thrombosis at 3 years. “The value of our registry is that ...

the Xience V stent was noted to protrude beyond the true coronary ostium and into the aorta (Figure 2C). The stent was deployed at low pressure (6 atm), and the anchor wire retracted (Figure 2D).

Some rare causes of inferior myocardial infarctions exist and include ascending aortic dissection when the right coronary ostium is involved. The ECG findings of an inferior ST segment elevation ...

Antegrade cannulae are designed to deliver cardioplegia solution to the heart via the coronary ostia in the normal direction of blood flow (antegrade perfusion). Medtronic offers both aortic root ...
