Patient Perspectives on Coronary Angiography Comparing Transradial vs Transfemoral Access
Introduction In recent years, the debate between transradial access (TRA) and transfemoral access (TFA) for coronary angiography (CAG) has become increasingly important in clinical practice. While TRA is recommended for its lower bleeding risks and faster recovery, the choice of access method significantly impacts patient satisfaction and procedure outcomes. A study conducted in 2024 sought…

Single Coronary Artery and ArteriovenousCommunication A Breakthrough in Coronary CTA Diagnostic Power
Introduction: Understanding rare congenital heart anomalies is essential for managing potentially life-threatening conditions. In a recent case, the coexistence of a single coronary artery (SCA) and arteriovenous (AV) communication was diagnosed using Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography (CCTA), offering invaluable insights into complex coronary anatomy.

Risk Factors and MACE Rates in NSTEMI Patients Undergoing Coronary Angiography
Introduction Non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) is a common condition in patients with acute coronary syndrome, often requiring coronary angiography for proper assessment. A recent retrospective cross-sectional study conducted in Multan, Pakistan, evaluated occluded and non-occluded NSTEMI patients, focusing on risk factors and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). The findings provide valuable insights into the…

Symptom-Driven Coronary Angiography After Drug-Eluting Balloon Treatment
Introduction: Managing in-stent restenosis (ISR) remains a critical challenge in interventional cardiology. Drug-eluting balloons (DEB) have emerged as a promising treatment option for ISR in patients with drug-eluting stents (DES). A recent study investigates the incidence of symptom-driven coronary angiography (SDCA) post-DEB treatment and its implications.

Coronarography in Senegalese Diabetic Patients Key Insights from a Recent Study
Introduction Diabetes significantly increases the risk of coronary artery disease, which remains a leading cause of mortality in diabetic patients. Coronary angiography is essential in detecting and managing these conditions, particularly in high-risk populations. A recent study conducted at the Aristide Le Dantec Teaching Hospital in Senegal provides valuable insights into the indications and outcomes…

Coronary Angiography in Diabetic Patients Key Findings from a Senegalese Study
Diabetes is a significant risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD), accounting for nearly 75% of diabetic-related mortality. Coronary angiography (CAG) plays a crucial role in detecting diffuse and multi-truncal coronary lesions, which often remain silent until severe complications arise. A recent study conducted at the Aristide Le Dantec Teaching Hospital in Dakar, Senegal, highlights…
