      Stents come as bare wire stents and stents that contain drugs called drug-eluting stents (DES). DES reduces inflammation and cell growth. It is a more successful treatment (in regard to restenosis) and is often used. The use of DES reduce restenosis when compared to bare metal stents (11).

      In recent studies coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is still the best therapy for reintervention for most patients with proximal left anterior descending, multivessel, and left main-stem coronary artery disease, in terms of improved survival (Taggart, 2007). Of the patients with CAD, about 10% will undergo CABG surgery (Michaels, 2001).

      Balloon angioplasty is rarely the only procedure performed during PCI. The overwhelming majority of PCIs involve the implantation of one or more coronary stents, which are tiny, expandable metal coils that are deployed in the re-opened area of the artery to stabilise the disrupted plaque and also aid in reducing re-closure of the narrowed area in the six months after the procedure (restenosis).

      Left ventricular support is generally much more important in terms of driving VAD development. A large portion of the heart muscle is devoted to the left ventricle, while the right has a much smaller portion. Most commonly a heart attack will affect the coronaries supplying the left ventricle.

      After about 50 anastomoses, in vitro, are conducted, a long-term animal model needs to be established. Yearling goats or mongrel dogs are possible experimental animals. The left anterior descending coronary artery should be dissected and proximal and distal sites of the future arteriotomy will be occluded via elastic snares.

      Compared with the left ventricle, the right ventricle is more resilient in the face of ischaemia. This is due to less myocardial oxygen demand, coronary perfusion occurring throughout the cardiac cycle, and a dual blood supply - the left anterior descending artery supplies the anterior two thirds of the septum. So, in the majority of cases, the RV

      INDICATIONS: Symptomatic arterial stenosis and short segment occlusions of the renal, iliac or femoral vessels. Stent placement is likely if the lesion is a complete occlusion or if the stenosis is heavily calcified, eccentric and long. Our threshold for using stents is becoming quite low.
