Abstract

Over the past 10 years, interventional cardiovascular medicine has rapidly developed. The advent of balloon angioplasty, mainly coronary angioplasty, has greatly stimulated research in the field of catheter-guided vascular interventions. However, after more than 10 years of clinical experience with bolloon angioplasty in coronary and peripheral arteries, acute vessel closure and development of recurrent stenosis (> 30 % in coronary arteries) do still represent major limitations of the method.
