More than 30 years ago the hypothesis of an interventional approach in patients with unstable angina or non–ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) was considered only after a "cooling-off" period. This negative attitude was in part justified by the lack of effective antithrombotic adjunctive therapies and devices in the management of lesion containing thrombus and the subsequent early hazard of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The delay—many days or weeks after hospital admission—to

Popliteal aneurysms are swelling of an artery. They are thought to be caused by atherosclerosis. These aneurysms are also correlated with the causes that develop aortic aneurysms. The wall of the popliteal artery is weakened‚ and thought to be because of inherited factors. In patients with multiple aneurysms in different arteries‚ it is theorized that there is an underlying weakness in the tissues. The exact nature of this has not been clarified at this time. Possibly the propensity of the
