Downloaded from AND PERCUTANEOUS CORONARY INTERVENTION 341 Cash Casey, David P Faxon Heart 2004;90:341–346. doi: 10.1136/hrt.2003.018986 he goal of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is to provide a safe, effective, less invasive alternative to coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG). When introduced by TAndreas Gruentzig 25 years ago, he envisioned the procedure to be a technique that would delay the need for CABG until severe multi-vessel coronary disease was present. Over the years, technological advances in equipment and devices have improved safety as well as short and long term outcomes. This has greatly expanded the indications for the technique and allowed more arteries to be accessible to effective treatment with better patient outcomes. In addition, developments in adjuvant pharmacotherapy have further improved outcomes of percutaneous procedures. The results of many large trials in the 1990s have shown that percutaneous intervention can be equally successful when compared to the ‘‘gold standard’’ CABG for patients with multi-vessel coronary artery disease. Now with advances in coronary stent technology, including drug eluting stents, multi-vessel angioplasty is set to make another leap forward with further expansion of the indications and improved outcomes. Approximately two thirds of patients who require revascularisation have multi-vessel disease and two thirds of these have anatomy that is amenable to treatment by percutaneous or open heart procedures.1 Both techniques have been shown to be relatively safe and highly effective in relieving angina, and have similar mortality and myocardial infarction rates; however, all the major studies have shown fewer additional revascularisation procedures in patients who undergo open heart surgery.1 It is widely anticipated that the gap in repeat procedures may begin to close with the advent of drug eluting stents.

  • Drug Eluting Stents & Coronary Angiography
    NEPALESE HEART JOURNAL Drug Eluting Stents & Coronary Angiography Dr. Bharat Rawat*, Dr. Pushpa Raj Poudel*, Dr. Smriti Mulmi* Twenty-five years ago, a young German physician, Andreas Gruentzig, inserted a catheter into a 38-year-old man's coronary artery, inflated a tiny balloon the doctor had fashioned in his own kitchen, successfully opening a blockage and restoring blood flow to a human heart. This event set a cascade of newer invention. First performed in the mid-1980s, and approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1994, stenting is a catheter-based procedure in which a small, expandable wire mesh tube (stent) is inserted into a diseased artery as a scaffold to hold it open. Coronary artery stents have made it possible for physicians to treat diseased coronary arteries with less trauma to the patient than coronary artery bypass graft surgery. According to 2005 guidelines issued by the American Heart Association and American College of Cardiology, stents can be considered for use in patients who have significant disease of the left main and left anterior descending coronary arteries, the two largest coronary arteries. Patients with very serious coronary artery disease, or total blockage of major arteries, are still recommended for surgery. Coronary artery stenting is almost always performed in conjunction with other catheter- based procedures, such as balloon angioplasty or atherectomy. These procedures are used to partially reduce the narrowing caused by atherosclerosis. In particular, stenting has been an important advance in balloon angioplasty. Before the introduction of stents, as many as half of all coronary arteries opened with a balloon-tipped catheter narrowed once again after the procedure (restenosis) in as much as 50% of cases.

  • Coronary Balloon Angioplasty Is Due to Two Physicians Born in Saxony, Germany

Andreas Roland Gru¨ntzig Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/eurheartj/article-abstract/41/15/1462/5819711 by guest on 16 April 2020 Coronary angiography was introduced by F. Mason Sones (1918– 85). On 30 October 1958 at the Cleveland Clinic, Sones attempted to (1939–85) perform imaging of the aorta in a young man but in error injected con- trast dye into the right coronary artery.1 From this accidental proce- dure, Sones developed coronary angiography. In 1967, this technique provided the basis for Sones’s friend and colleague Rene´Favaloro (1923–2000) to perform coronary artery bypass surgery. The principle of endovascular treatment of peripheral artery steno- sis was present since Charles Th. Dotter (1920–85), together with his trainee Melvin P. Judkins (1922–85), performed the first dilatation of a femoral artery occlusion in Portland on 16 January 1964. This set the stage for transforming this experience to coronary arteries. Figure 1 Andreas Gru¨ntzig during angioplasty procedure 1977. Andreas was born in Dresden, the capital of Saxony and after high school in Leipzig and studies in Heidelberg, he moved to Zu¨rich, Switzerland, because of bureaucratic resistance in Germany to his ideas on angioplasty techniques (Figure 1).
