BACKGROUND:Diabetes may be associated with differential outcomes in patients undergoing left main coronary revascularization with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronaryarterybypassgrafting (CABG).
Left main coronaryartery disease (CAD) and diabetes pose significant challenges in cardiovascular care, often leading to adverse outcomes. However, the comparative long-term efficacy of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) versus coronaryarterybypassgrafting (CABG) in patients with these conditions remains unclear.
Eagle looks at the difference between quantitative coronary angiography versus intervascular ultrasound to guide PCI. He then discusses paclitaxel-coated balloon catheters vs uncoated balloon angioplasty for treating coronary in-stent restenosis.
When medications and/or procedures like balloon angioplasty are unable to re-establish good blood flow to the heart, these blood vessels can be bypassed by an operation known as coronaryarterybypassgrafting or CABG. This can block smooth flow of blood and the person can develop chest pain.
Surgical Interventions : In some cases, surgical procedures like angioplasty, stent placement, or coronaryarterybypassgrafting (CABG) may be necessary to restore blood flow to the heart.
