What Is an Angioplasty?
An angioplasty is a surgical procedure that is performed to clear up a clogged or blocked artery, when you have coronary artery diseases or CAD. If you suffer from blocked arteries, there can be a build-up of fatty deposits such as plaque, inside of the arteries. This will serve to restrict blood flow to your heart. It is possible to also experience other symptoms of a reduced blood flow, which can result in:
- Chest pain
- Angina
- Shortness breathing
- Heavy feeling in the chest
- Pain in jaw
- Pain down either or both arms
- Heartburn
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Sweating profusely
A coronary angioplasty surgical procedure will open up any blocked arteries, to restore normal blood flow to your heart organ. This is a common surgical procedure, and it uses a catheter inserted into an arm or leg artery, to move towards the heart and open blocked areas. A small balloon is used to push the plaque and deposits out of the way, and the surgical procedure is common enough to usually be deemed successful most of the time.

How Is an Angioplasty Botched into Malpractice?
If the angioplasty is unsuccessful, you may have more problems after the surgical procedure. If the angioplasty does not work, you may need to have an emergency coronary artery bypass grafting, or other emergency surgical procedure, to repair the failed angioplasty.
There are symptoms for a failed angioplasty, which can include:
- Acute myocardial infarction
- Dissection
- Repeated ventricular fibrillation
- Unstable angina pectoris
- Total occlusion
- Cardiogenic shock
If you have a failed angioplasty surgical procedure, you can even die as a result of the failure of this surgery. The hospital where you have the angioplasty will have various procedures for performing a correction after the failed angioplasty. You may be informed that you need a bypass graft after a failed angioplasty. This may also require a surgical procedure resulting in repairs to:
- Left anterior descending artery
- Diagonal artery
- Right coronary artery
- Obtuse margin artery
- Other surgical procedures
