Bare metal or drug-eluting stent implantation in last remaining vessel PCI? A serious dilemma.
Acta Cardiol. 2009 Apr;64(2):281-5
Authors: Zhang L, Zhu J, Kiemeneij F
This case report describes the treatment of an old male diabetic patient with last remaining vessel coronary artery disease and poor left ventricular function. In presence of an old occlusion of the left main coronary artery, a subtotal stenosis of a dominant right coronary artery required angioplasty. After ample consideration it was decided to implant a bare metal stent (BMS) instead of a drug-eluting stent (DES). The major reason was the fear for early discontinuation of clopidogrel in case a drug-eluting stent was placed. The procedure and follow-up are described followed by an overview of current literature concerning similar pathology.

Vertebral artery stenting by using coronary intervention techniques and devices.

Atherosclerotic disease of the vertebro/basilar vessels is an important cause of posterior circulation infarction. Commonly, the primary atheroma forms at the origin of the vertebral arteries. Although initial treatment is medical, arch and four-vessel studies (CTA, MRA, or DSA) are warranted if symptoms continue. Endovascular management of vertebral artery stenosis might be highlighted as a good option in selected patients. This is a case of endoluminal stenting of vertebral artery with a durable result.

We report a case of a giant subpericardial lipoma with ventricular arrhythmias. It was resected through a median sternotomy without cardiopulmonary bypass. The tumour was about 21x23x5 cm and weighed 2100 g. After resection the heart rhythm returned to sinus rhythm.
