angioplasty

Angioplasty is the technique of mechanical wiening a narrowed or totally obstructed blood vessel; typically as a result of atherosclerosis. Tightly folded balloons are passed into the narrowed locations and then inflated to a fixed size using water pressures some 75 to 500 times normal blood pressure (6 to 20 atmospheres)".

Trivia about angioplasty

Invasive coronary bypass surgery was the standard for unclogging arteries before the advent of this procedure
In 1977 the balloon type of this procedure was used for the first time to unblock clogged heart arteries
In this operation, a surgeon repairs a blood vessel by inserting a balloon-tipped catheter to unblock it
