Distal retrograde access: Step by step
Publication date: Available online 20 July 2017 Source:Journal of Indian College of Cardiology Author(s): Tulio P. Navarro, Ricardo J. Procopio Complex long lesions are now in the endovascular realm, but with a rate of failure of 10 to 20% due to impossibility of crossing the lesion. Several CTO devices were developed by commercial companies but are expensive. Distal retrograde access is now the first choice approach in such scenario, improving procedure success, recanalization rate and limb salvage rate, being fast cheap and feasible in the majority of the cases, with low complication rates. The step by step is descri...

A case of unidirectional exit block during pulmonary vein isolation
We present a case of unidirectional exit block from a pulmonary vein (PV) during a pulmonary vein isolation procedure. Following circumferential antral applications around the right PVs, PV pacing showed capture without exit. Meanwhile coronary sinus pacing showed continuous presence of delayed PV potentials. Our case is a rare example of unidirectional exit block since unidirectional block usually concerns entrance block. (Source: Journal of Indian College of Cardiology)

Reflections on the Anaconda ™ abdominal aortic stent graft
Publication date: Available online 3 July 2017 Source:Journal of Indian College of Cardiology Author(s): S. Montgomery, B. Renwick, K. Irshad, R. Velu, D.B. Reid Endovascular aneurysm repair has become the primary modality for repair of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm1,2. A number of companies produce stent grafts for this indication. The following review focuses on the specific benefits and features of the AnacondaTM(Vasutek, Inchinnan, Scotland) device. It is a modular, re-positionable graft with features to aid cannulation of the contralateral gate and facilitate a seal in more challenging neck anatomy. Our ...

Transradial access for carotid artery intervenions
Conclusions TRA may alternative choice for carotid artery stenting when the femoral access is precluded. In centers, specialized for transradial peripheral interventions the radial access is used with high success rate and low complication rate and the learning curve plays an important role in achiving less contrast consumption and radiation.

Interventional management of hypertension
Publication date: Available online 1 July 2017 Source:Journal of Indian College of Cardiology Author(s): N.N. Khanna, Suparna Rao Hypertension is thought to contribute to more than 7 million deaths worldwide each year. A substantial portion of the hypertensive population has uncontrolled blood pressure and remain at risk for elevated cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Recent technical advances targeting the sympathetic activity of the carotid sinuses (Baroreflex Activation Therapy-BAT) and the renal sympathetic nerves (Renal Denervation Therapy-RDT) have renewed interest in invasive therapy for the treatment of dr...

May Thurner's Syndrome – A mistake in Planning
Conclusions With development in image technology and awareness, we are able to diagnose May Thurner's Syndrome more frequently than before. Consequently, we are able to treat DVT associated with this condition by a scientific approach with better outcome for the patient. However, long term results of such a strategy is awaited. We conclude that May Thurner's Syndrome is just one other example of a mistake in planning by the almighty. (Source: Journal of Indian College of Cardiology)
