RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: The DyeVert™ system (Osprey Medical Inc., Minnesota, MN) may reduce contrast media (CM) volume during coronary procedures while maintaining fluoroscopic image quality. Here, we assessed whether the use of the DyeVert system reduces acute kidney injury (AKI) rate in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) undergoing invasive coronary procedures. METHODS: ACS patients scheduled for coronary procedure from January 2017 to December 2019 were included. Two groups were identified: (a) Control group (n = 339), including patients in which a conventional manual injection syringe was used; and (b) DyeVert group (n = 112), in which CM injection was handled by the DyeVert™ system. A propensity score matching was performed to reduce the effect of treatment selection bias and potential confounders. In all cases, a low-osmolar, nonionic CM was administered. The primary objective was the rate of AKI, defined as a serum creatinine increase ≥0.3 mg/dl within 72 hr after CM exposure. RESULTS: CM volume was higher in the Control group than in the DyeVert group (130 [120-188] ml vs. 99 [69-136] ml; p <.001). In the DyeVert group the mean percent CM volume saved was 38 ± 13%. AKI occurred in 7/90 patients (8%) in the DyeVert group and in 17/90 (19%) patients in the Control group (odds ratio = 0.37; 95% confidence interval 0.14-0.95; p =.047). CONCLUSIONS: This preliminary result suggests that CM volume reduction obtained by the DyeVert™ system is an effective strategy to prevent AKI in ACS patients undergoing invasive procedure.

RESUMEN

Plaque prolapse (PP) is commonly defined as tissue extrusion through the stent strut. It is not a rare event, frequently detected by intravascular ultrasound, and it is associated with stent thrombosis and adverse outcomes. We present a case of PP after stenting of the left anterior descending coronary artery.

RESUMEN

Nowadays, obesity represents one of the most unresolved global pandemics, posing a critical health issue in developed countries. According to the World Health Organization, its prevalence has tripled since 1975, reaching a prevalence of 13% of the world population in 2016. Indeed, as obesity increases worldwide, novel strategies to fight this condition are of the utmost importance to reduce obese-related morbidity and overall mortality related to its complications. Early experimental and initial clinical data have suggested that endovascular bariatric surgery (EBS) may be a promising technique to reduce weight and hormonal imbalance in the obese population. Compared to open bariatric surgery and minimally invasive surgery (MIS), EBS is much less invasive, well tolerated, with a shorter recovery time, and is probably cost-saving. However, there are still several technical aspects to investigate before EBS can be routinely offered to all obese patients. Further prospective studies and eventually a randomized trial comparing open bariatric surgery vs. EBS are needed, powered for clinically relevant outcomes, and with adequate follow-up. Yet, EBS may already appear as an appealing alternative treatment for weight management and cardiovascular prevention in morbidly obese patients at high surgical risk.
