What is Angioplasty?
Angioplasty is a procedure to restore blood flow

hospital. The doctor threads a thin tube through
a blood vessel in the arm or groin up to the
involved site in the artery. The tube has a tiny
balloon on the end

During angioplasty, a doctor inserts acatheter
through a vessel in the femoralartery at the top
of the thigh or the radialartery in the wrist.
After the catheter is snakedup into the blockedor
narrowed artery in the heart, a balloon at its
tip expands, pressing a wire-mesh stent into the
artery wall.

The Procedure
Angioplasty is performed while you are awake,
under local anesthetic. It's sometimes
uncomfortable, but not usually painful. The
surgeon makes a small incision in the groin or
arm and inserts a thin tube, called a catheter,
into the artery. The catheter includes a small
balloon and a small wire tube, called a stent.
Once the catheter is in place, a dye is injected
and X-rays are taken, which tell the physician
exactly where the blockages are and how narrow
the artery is. This is also known as
an angiogram and functions as a map for the
doctor.

How Serious Is an Angioplasty
As with all types of surgery, coronary angioplasty
 carries a risk of complications. However, the
risk of serious problems is small. Complications
can occur during or after an angioplasty. It's
common to have bleeding or bruising under the
skin where the catheter was inserted.
