Pulmonic stenosis (PS) is one of the most commonly encountered congenital cardiac defects in canine patients. English bulldogs have an increased risk of PS as compared to other dog breeds and have a higher reported prevalence of type II/type B/dysplastic pulmonic valve morphology. It has been shown that the dysplastic...

Creator:

Bergman, Joshua J.

Abstract:

Re-occlusion of arteries following percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) remains a post-operative issue in the treatment of artery blockage. This re-narrowing of the luminal cavity, a condition called restenosis, has been attributed to the injury induced by PTCA balloon insertion. While arterial recoil can be completely prevented by a coronary...
