Drug‐coated balloons for complex coronary de novo lesions

Sign Up to like & get
recommendations! Published in 2024 at "Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions"

DOI: 10.1002/ccd.30983

Abstract: Even complex lesions can be treated with a drug‐coated balloon (DCB) alone. Debulking followed by DCB in calcified lesions is feasible. Future randomized trials should address DCB in more complex lesions. read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2018 at "Clinical Cardiology"

DOI: 10.1002/clc.22942

Abstract: The treatment of coronary small vessel disease (SVD) remains an unresolved issue. Drug‐eluting stents (DES) have limited efficacy due to increased rates of instent‐restenosis, mainly caused by late lumen loss. Drug‐coated balloons (DCB) are a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/s0735-1097(20)32165-3

Abstract: Small coronary artery (SCA) PCI has greater lesion failure and restenosis. Drug-eluting stents (DES) have shown efficacy whereas limited trials have explored the benefit of drug-coated balloons (DCB). We searched databases for RCTs comparing DCB… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2025 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-025-98773-8

Abstract: While the efficacy and safety of drug-coated balloons (DCBs) for treating short femoropopliteal lesions are well-established, evidence on long-term outcomes for long lesions remains limited. This study aims to compare the 2-year clinical outcomes of… read more here.
