Core Tip |
This is first case report of optical coherence tomography evaluating in-stent restenosis in a transplant hepatic artery. In this case, the optical coherence tomography proved to be valuable in grading the significance of stenosis, identifying its possible causes, and providing measures for choosing appropriate devices for re-treatment. In this case, this additional and modern tool helped the diagnosis and the therapeutic planning after a doubtful angiography result. |
