Introduction:An optimal strategy for the treatment of intracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD) has remained unclear, despite medical therapy (antiplatelet therapy and LDL control management) or endovascular therapy (angioplasty or stenting). Stroke recurrence rates were 16.2% in the AA group, 13.8% in the AS group, and 5.9%

SPACE-2 (Stent-Protected Angioplasty Versus Carotid Endarterectomy-2), a trial that included endarterectomy, stenting, and medical arms, failed to detect significant differences in stroke rates among treatment groups, but the study was stopped well short of its recruitment goal.

Understanding Peripheral Artery Disease Peripheral artery disease or PAD is a condition in which plaque builds up in the arteries that lead to the legs and feet. Antiplatelet medicines help to reduce the risk of blood clots while statins help to lower blood cholesterol levels and stabilize plaque in the arteries.

The deformable gel constituted an 8mm long replaceable stenotic segment at the level of M1‐MCA simulating an atherosclerotic plaque with a 0.5mm internal diameter. The phantom includes the aortic arch, all supraoptic cervical arteries and a complete circle of Willis up to the M2‐MCA, A2‐ACA and P2‐PCA segments.

Here’s the angiogram of the RCA : No thrombus or plaque rupture in the RCA (or any coronary artery) was found. This MI wasn’t caused by a ruptured plaque of CAD - it was a coronary artery dissection of the RCA.

The ECG is diagnostic for acute transmural infarction of the anterior and lateral walls, with LAD OMI being the most likely cause (which has various potential etiologies for the actual cause of the acute coronary artery occlusion, the most common of which is of course type 1 ACS, plaque rupture with thrombotic occlusion).

The most important advantage of laser angioplasty or excimer laser angioplasty, is that you need only a standard guidwire, 0.014 inch standard guide wire, unlike the other atherectomy devices which require a bulkier guidewire.

This blockage is often caused by a blood clot or the buildup of plaque in the coronary arteries, which supply the heart with oxygen-rich blood. A heart attack, or myocardial infarction, happens when an artery becomes blocked, reducing blood flow to the heart muscle.
