A Randomized Comparison of Coronary-Stent Placement and Balloon Angioplasty in the Treatment of Coronary Artery Disease
David L. Fischman,Martin B. Leon,Donald S. Baim,Richard A. Schatz,Michael P. Savage,Ian M. Penn,Katherine D. Detre,Lisa Veltri,Donald R. Ricci,Masakiyo Nobuyoshi,Michael W. Cleman,Richard R. Heuser,David Almond,Paul S. Teirstein,R. David Fish,Antonio Colombo,Jeffrey C. Brinker,Jeffrey Moses,Alex Shaknovich,John N. Hirshfeld,Stephen Bailey,Stephen E. Ellis,Randal Rake,Sheldon Goldberg +23 more
TL;DR: In selected patients, placement of an intracoronary stent, as compared with balloon angioplasty, results in an improved rate of procedural success, a lower rate of angiographically detected restenosis, a similar rate of clinical events after six months, and a less frequent need for revascularization of the original coronary lesion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stent placement compared with balloon angioplasty for obstructed coronary bypass grafts
Michael P. Savage,John S. Douglas,David L. Fischman,Carl J. Pepine,Spencer B. King,Jeffrey A. Werner,Steven R. Bailey,Paul Overlie,Sarah H. Fenton,Jeffrey A. Brinker,Martin B. Leon,Sheldon Goldberg,Richard R. Heuser,Richard W. Smalling,Robert D. Safian,Michael W. Cleman,Maurice Buchbinder,David Snead,Randal Rake,Sharon Gebhardt +19 more
TL;DR: Compared with balloon angioplasty, stenting of selected venous bypass-graft lesions resulted in superior procedural outcomes, a larger gain in luminal diameter, and a reduction in major cardiac events.
Journal ArticleDOI
Efficacy of Coronary Stenting Versus Balloon Angioplasty in Small Coronary Arteries
Mike Savage,David L. Fischman,Randal Rake,Martin B. Leon,Richard A. Schatz,Ian M. Penn,Masakiyo Nobuyoshi,Jeffrey W. Moses,John W. Hirshfeld,Richard R. Heuser,Donald S. Baim,Michael W. Cleman,Jeffrey A. Brinker,Sharon Gebhardt,Sheldon Goldberg +14 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that elective stent placement provides superior angiographic and clinical outcomes than balloon angioplasty in vessels slightly smaller than 3 mm.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term angiographic and clinical outcome after implantation of a ballon-expandable stent in the native coronary circulation☆
Michael P. Savage,David L. Fischman,Richard A. Schatz,Paul S. Teirstein,Martin B. Leon,Donald S. Baim,Stephen G. Ellis,Eric J. Topol,John W. Hirshfeld,Michael W. Cleman,Maurice Buchbinder,Steven R. Bailey,Richard R. Heuser,Craig M. Walker,R.Charles Curry,Sharon Gebhardt,Randal Rake,Sheldon Goldberg +17 more
TL;DR: Elective use of this balloon-expandable stent in the native coronary circulation is associated with a low restenosis rate by quantitative angiography in previously untreated lesions and a favorable clinical outcome with an excellent event-free survival rate at 1 year.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term angiographic and clinical outcome after implantation of balloon-expandable stents in aortocoronary saphenous vein grafts.
Sarah H. Fenton,David L. Fischman,Mike Savage,Richard A. Schatz,Martin B. Leon,Donald S. Baim,Spencer B. King,Richard R. Heuser,R.Charles Curry,Randal Rake,Sheldon Goldberg +10 more
TL;DR: The use of the Palmaz-Schatz stent for the treatment of focal, de novo, aortocoronary saphenous vein graft lesions is associated with a high procedural success rate, a low angiographic restenosis rate, and low clinical event rates, including the need for repeat revascularization.
