Arteriosclerosis: Facts and fancy
2015, Cardiovascular PathologyCitation Excerpt :What is the basis for this concept? There have been a number of angiographic studies in patients who had coronary angiography months before, and immediately after, a coronary event [52–57]. According to the authors, before the coronary event, the culprit lesions were actually small non-occlusive plaques.
Prognostic clinical and angiographic characteristics for the development of a new significant lesion in remote segments after successful percutaneous coronary intervention
2010, International Journal of CardiologyCitation Excerpt :The rate of disease progression in coronary arteries has been investigated by quantitative coronary angiography for several years. In 7–8% of NCL progression is observed during a relative short period of follow-up [13,14]. Kaski et al. demonstrated that 9% of culprit and 8% of NCL, with a mean stenosis of 38%, of patients with chronic stable angina progress during 8 months [3], while 40% of NCL that progressed were found completely occluded at the angiographic follow-up.
Severity of Coronary Arterial Stenoses Responsible for Acute Coronary Syndromes
2009, American Journal of CardiologyCitation Excerpt :Similarly, in patients with non-STEMI/UAP, in whom aspiration was not performed, diameter stenosis was predominantly >50%. Earlier angiographic studies had suggested that culprit lesions typically had <50% diameter stenosis before the acute coronary events.11–15 However, in these small retrospective studies, the interval between the index angiogram and acute coronary syndrome was often very long.
Plaque Stabilization: Can We Turn Theory into Evidence?
2006, American Journal of CardiologyCitation Excerpt :Traditionally, many considered atherosclerosis an inevitable consequence of aging due to “wear and tear,” with plaque gradually obstructing the lumen as lipid detritus accumulates passively on the artery wall.1,9 Although autopsy studies frequently associated thrombi with MI,10,11 angiographic observations show that only 25%–33% of acute MIs are associated with the most stenotic segments of the affected vessels.2,12,13 Moreover, angiography performed after successful thrombolytic treatment often demonstrated surprisingly small underlying stenoses.14
Role of electron-beam computed tomography and nuclear stress testing in cardiovascular risk assessment
2005, American Journal of CardiologyCitation Excerpt :However, a large number of coronary events in asymptomatic subjects occur with nonobstructive disease. Both pathologic and clinical studies have shown that the majority of acute MIs are triggered by lesions that cause <50% stenosis of the vessel lumen (Figure 1).3–5 The progression of coronary artery plaque is a slow and insidious process (Figure 2).
