Population

13 patients treated with balloon angioplasty (111 coronary subsegments analyzed)

Design

Cohort

Follow-up

6 months

Discussion

Member takes

Implication

Residual plaque burden and dissection were associated with post-angioplasty remodeling; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation before practice change.

Population

13 patients treated with balloon angioplasty (111 coronary subsegments analyzed)

Intervention

Balloon angioplasty with three-dimensional intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) analysis

Outcome

Qualitative and quantitative IVUS analysis (total vessel, plaque, and lumen volume) to assess remodelingsurrogate

Lumen renarrowing after balloon angioplasty is primarily determined by unfavorable remodeling, which is influenced by residual plaque burden and local dissection.
