How Angioplasty Works - Dr. Ajinkya Borhade Explains!
Angioplasty is also known as coronary angioplasty or a surgery for heart attack or venoplasty or balloon dilation surgery for heart.
During the angioplasty surgery, your angioplasty expert like Dr. Ajinkya Borhade, performs heart angiography first to confirm the existence of blockage.
Then a thin catheter is inserted through your wrist or your femoral area and is guided up to the heart arteries. Once the blockage is located, a small balloon at the tip of the catheter is inflated to compress the plaque against the artery wall.
Finally, this will then help to restore the blood flow. In most of the cases, a stent i.e. metal mesh tube is placed to keep the artery open permanently. And that is why it is called as stent angioplasty.
After the stent is successfully kept, the balloon is deflated and then removed and blood flow is rechecked to ensure proper restoration.
Dr. Ajinkya Borhade’s Approach to Angioplasty
- Evidence-Based Decision Making: Angioplasty is recommended only after careful evaluation of angiography, symptoms, ECG, 2D Echo, and stress test findings to ensure truly necessary intervention.
- Patient Safety First Approach: Focus on minimizing risk during procedure with proper pre-procedure assessment, stabilization, and selection of safest access route (radial or femoral).
- Precision in Stent Selection: Choice of stent type (drug-eluting, bioresorbable, or standard stent) is made based on blockage location, artery size, and long-term outcomes.
- Emergency Heart Attack treatment: Quick decision-making for primary angioplasty (PPCI) in heart attack cases to restore blood flow and save heart muscle.

Is a 70% blocked artery bad?
A 70% blockage is considered significant and may reduce blood flow to the heart, especially during exertion. It can cause chest pain, breathlessness, or heart risk and should be evaluated carefully by a cardiologist to decide whether medicines or angioplasty is required.
How many years does angioplasty last?
Angioplasty results can last many years if patients follow proper medication, diet, exercise, and lifestyle control. However, new blockages can develop over time if risk factors like diabetes, smoking, or high cholesterol are not controlled.
Can I climb stairs after a stent?
