Intravascular lithotripsy in calcified left main coronary artery: Procedural success and 1-year clinical outcomes.
Int J Cardiol
January 2025
Department of Cardiology, Leiden University Medical Center, Leiden, The Netherlands.
Background: Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) has an excellent efficacy and safety profile in the treatment of calcified coronary lesions during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, data regarding its use on left main (LM) lesions are still limited.
Objective: We aimed to analyze the technical success and 1-year clinical outcomes in calcified LM lesions treated with IVL.
Transcoronary cooling and dilution for cardioprotection during revascularisation for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction: Design and rationale of the STEMI-Cool study.

Department of cardiology, Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust, Harefield Hospital, London, UK; Cardiovascular Academic Group, King's College London, London, UK.
Background: ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is treated with immediate primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) to restore coronary blood flow in the acutely ischaemic territory, but is associated with reperfusion injury limiting the benefit of the therapy. No treatment has proven effective in reducing reperfusion injury. Transcoronary hypothermia has been tested in clinical studies and is well tolerated, but is generally established after crossing the occlusion with a guidewire therefore after initial reperfusion, which might have contributed to the neutral outcomes.

Department of Fetal, Neonatal and Cardiovascular Sciences, Bambino Gesù Children's Hospital, IRCCS, Rome, Italy.
Kawasaki Disease (KD) is a systemic vasculitis that can lead to coronary artery aneurysms (CAA) in up to 10% of treated cases, significantly increasing the risk of thrombosis and acute myocardial infarction (AMI). While thrombolytic therapy is commonly used in adult coronary syndromes, its application in pediatric KD remains poorly studied. We report a 9-month-old infant with KD and giant CAA complicated by a subocclusive thrombus in the left anterior descending artery (LAD).

December 2024
Klinik für Herz- und Kreislauferkrankungen, Deutsches Herzzentrum München, Technische Universität München, Munich, Germany; DZHK (German Centre for Cardiovascular Research), partner site Munich Heart Alliance, Munich, Germany.
Background: Percutaneous coronary intervention of severely calcified lesions is limited by inadequate stent expansion and poor clinical outcomes. Over the past decade, several devices and techniques have been developed for calcium modification and lesion preparation. Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) is a novel tool in this context.

December 2024
Heart Rhythm Management Centre, Postgraduate Program in Cardiac Electrophysiology and Pacing, Universitair Ziekenhuis Brussel-Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Brussels, Belgium.
Background: A novel focal lattice-tip catheter allowing the delivery of either pulsed field (PF) or radiofrequency (RF) energy has recently received regulatory approval. The technology features a proprietary 3-dimensional electroanatomic mapping system.
Objective: We describe the first real-world and multicenter experience.
