Abstract:
:We report a case of a hard lesion in the body of an aortocoronary saphenous vein graft, which developed 3 years after bypass surgery and was not amenable to dilation during percutaneous coronary angioplasty, despite multiple balloon inflations at pressures reaching 13 atm. Hard lesions in aortocoronary saphenous vein grafts are rare but may lead to balloon angioplasty failure necessitating alternative angioplasty options.

杂志文章abstract:BACKGROUND:Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC) is a novel heart disease, mimicking acute myocardial infarction. The term "transient left ventricular dysfunction syndrome" (TLVDS) seems to be more appropriate since variant forms of TTC sparing apical segments (mid-ventricular ballooning syndrome (MVBS) and inverted TTC) have...
