  • Title: Kounis Syndrome after Angioplasty of the Superficial Femoral Artery with Paclitaxel-Coated Balloon.
    Author: Narroway HG, Katib N, Gomes ML, Varcoe RL, Thomas SD.
    Journal: Ann Vasc Surg; 2020 Nov; 69():450.e17-450.e22. PubMed ID: 32561243.
    Abstract:
    Drug-coated balloons are used widely as a form of endovascular treatment for peripheral arterial disease, to improve patency by reducing neointimal hyperplasia and restenosis. We present a rare case of acute coronary syndrome secondary to anaphylaxis after inflation of a paclitaxel-coated balloon used to treat a recurrent superficial femoral artery stenosis.
