Flow-Cytometric Analysis Comparing Platelet Activation during Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty, Stent Placement and Rotablation

Abstract: Background: Acute occlusion and subacute restenosis of the coronary artery remain the limiting factors of the otherwise successful techniques of interventional cardiology. Platelets and especially activated platelet subpopulations play a key role in these sometimes fatal complications. In this study, we used flow cytometry to compare the influences of percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA, n = 12 patients), stenting (n = 8) and rotablation (n = 10) on platelet antigens and their possible alterat… Show more
