Initiation of Arterial Stenotic Thrombosis
Initiation of Arterial Stenotic Thrombosis
Current practice in arterial disease is to establish the site of stenosis, to dilate the
Stenosis with angioplasty or surgical bypass, and to try to maintain the integrity of the arterial lumen with stents. There are either bare stents or drug eluting stents which are more thrombogenic requiring long term dual antiplatelet therapy with its risk of increased bleeding. For coronary disease, this is called percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Clinical Cardiology and Cardiovascular medicine welcomes all the Hypertension articles, heart transplantation case reports, Coronary angioplasty risk and many more.
