Swift diagnosis is imperative, with timely reperfusion crucial to minimise adverse outcomes. Revascularisation strategies include culprit-vessel-only therapy, staged complete revascularisation or immediate complete revascularisation. Evidence from randomised trials strongly favours complete revascularisation in ST-elevation MI (STEMI). Data regarding immediate complete revascularisation compared to a staged approach are limited, with uncertainties regarding the advantages of physiology-guided treatment compared to angiographic assessment alone. Non-STEMI (NSTEMI) patients with multivessel disease are often complex and current guidelines offer limited recommendations for this patient group, emphasising the need for individualised treatment. Observational studies have sought to find the optimal approach, yet conflicting data prevails. Dedicated trials for this issue in NSTEMI patients are currently unavailable. To enhance the decision-making processes for patients with AMI, future trials should consider the inclusion of functional health status and health-related quality of life outcomes. The existing gaps in knowledge underscore the intricacies of managing AMI and the ongoing necessity for comprehensive research to refine treatment strategies.</p>","PeriodicalId":38586,"journal":{"name":"Interventional Cardiology Review","volume":"20 ","pages":"e10"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2025-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11959580/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143765073","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A 55-year-old woman with chest pain and dyspnoea was found to have an interatrial septal mass and aortitis suspicious for ECD without other organ involvement. After two inadequate transcatheter interatrial biopsies were obtained using ultrasound guidance alone, diagnostic samples were successfully obtained using intraprocedural frozen section examination.

Our unique case of isolated cardiovascular involvement highlights how frozen sectioning with multimodal intraprocedural imaging guidance can improve diagnostic yield of endomyocardial biopsies.

The presence of coronary calcium, even without coronary artery obstruction, confers an adverse clinical prognosis. Coronary calcium score on CT is additive in predicting risk of cardiovascular events beyond traditional scoring systems. Deposition of calcium in coronary arteries is initiated by the formation of an atherosclerotic plaque. Thereafter, multiple processes and pathways are involved, resulting in initial microcalcifications that coalesce into calcium sheets. Calcified nodules are thought to occur from rupture of these sheets. Calcified coronary stenoses requiring revascularisation result in greater target lesion failure and overall major adverse cardiovascular events than noncalcified lesions, regardless of the mode of revascularisation. Modifying calcium prior to stenting to optimise stent expansion is required and intracoronary imaging can greatly facilitate not only the detection of coronary calcium, but also the confirmation of adequate modification and stent optimisation.
