Treatment of small coronary arteries with a paclitaxel-coated balloon catheter

Abstract: Treatment of coronary stenosis in small coronary vessels with the paclitaxel-coated balloon was well tolerated. It may offer an alternative to the implantation of a drug-eluting stent (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00404144).

“…Again, this finding might be related to the small number of patients analyzed in this study undergoing DEB for de novo lesions. In 2010, Unverdorben et al 23 reported the results of a non-randomized cohort of 118 patients undergoing PCI of small coronary vessels using a paclitaxel-coated balloon. The trial showed a TLR rate of 12% at 12 months after the DEB intervention.…”

“…However, clinical information on the efficacy and safety in de novo coronary lesions is limited. Moreover, several studies and trials have produced conflicting results in patients with a stable coronary artery disease [8,9,10,11,12,13]. Therefore, we hypothesize that DEB may also be safe for the treatment of non-small coronary artery lesions.…”
