Despite major advances in catheter-based therapy and adjunctive pharmacology, percutaneous revascularisation of diseased saphenous vein bypass grafts (SVGs) remains a critical challenge for the interventional cardiologist. Degeneration and occlusion of vein grafts is a common problem with an incidence of 15% to 30% in year one after surgery, 1% to 2% annual occlusion rates in years one to six and… View more

Previously considered to be separate disease entities, the acute coronary syndromes (ACS) are somewhat arbitrarily divided on the basis of their electrocardiographic manifestations and are now thought to arise from a common disease process. Based on a number of factors, the severity of the ACS and, consequently, their attendant clinical risk may vary. The management of patients with ACS should… View more

The investigation of chest pain involves more than determining coronary anatomy. Discussions about whether non-invasive imaging might replace coronary angiography for the display of coronary anatomy must not detract from the fact that clinical assessment and dynamic functional imaging by echocardiography or nuclear imaging are at least equally important. Often, the need for imaging coronary… View more

Transforming a critically narrowed coronary vessel to one that is angiographically smooth and unobstructed is immensely satisfying. However, if the procedure is examined in its component parts, it is surprising that this technique is considered safe with minimal overt clinical complications. Temporary vessel occlusion renders the downstream myocardium ischaemic, while vessel trauma initiates… View more
