Impaired Flow and Physiology in Coronaries With Anomalous Origin From the Opposite Sinus of Valsalva

BACKGROUND: Anomalous Aortic Origin of a Coronary Artery (AAOCA) high-risk anatomical features (intramural segment, acute take-off angle, slit-like ostium) cause coronary stenosis leading to myocardial infarction. How these features alter coronary physiology remains unclear. AIMS...

Buddy Wire–Augmented Intravascular Lithotripsy in Refractory Calcified Coronary Lesions: A Five‐Case Series

Heavily calcified coronary lesions remain a major challenge in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), often limiting the effectiveness of intravascular lithotripsy (IVL). We report a five-case series in which IVL failed to achieve adequate lesion modification but was successfu...
