Coronary accordion effect mimicking coronary dissection in a 41-year-old male during angiography procedure an interesting case report.

The accordion phenomenon is a rare pseudo-complication observed during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), which can mimic coronary dissection, spasm, or thrombus formation. Here we present a patient with inferior ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), who developed multiple pseudo lesions in the tortuous right coronary artery (RCA) during PCI. An emergency coronary angiography was performed, but unfortunately, the lesion developed into an accordion-like shape in the middle segment of the right coronary artery (RCA), which looked like a coronary dissection.

This study investigated the influence of higher pressure protection with a small diameter balloon of side branch (SB) on bifurcation lesions. Of the different coronary stent implantation techniques, the modified jailed balloon technique has become a viable option for bifurcation lesions. However, there was no detailed study on the relationship between the balloon inflation pressure of the main vessel (MV) and SB.

Article Synopsis
- Cardiovascular diseases are a major cause of death and impact quality of life, necessitating effective treatments like endovascular procedures and vascular grafts for long-term care.
- Innovative 3D printing techniques have been utilized to create biodegradable vascular grafts loaded with clopidogrel (CLOP), enhancing their mechanical and biological properties while allowing for customization.
- Test results show these 3D-printed grafts offer sustained drug release, reduced platelet deposition, low hemolysis, and promote cell attachment and growth, indicating their potential for improved vascular treatments.
Long-term efficacy and risk factors of balloon-assisted maturation for radial-cephalic arteriovenous fistula with small-caliber veins.

Introduction: Balloon angioplasty maturation (BAM) is a salvage method for autologous arteriovenous fistula (AVF) maturation failure. AVF creation using small-diameter veins is considered to have poor outcomes. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the long-term patency of small-diameter veins (≤3 mm) using BAM.

Despite an early coronary angioplasty, however, in some cases, there is a lower efficacy of revascularization, with less favourable clinical outcome in the short and long terms. Various elements participate in the distant prognosis after primary coronary angioplasty (PCI).
