Bare-metal stent thrombosis two decades after stenting
Very late bare-metal stent (BMS) thrombosis is unusual in clinical practice. To the best of our knowledge, the latest that the thrombosis of a BMS has been reported is 14 years after implantation. Here, we describe a case of BMS thrombosis that occurred two decades after stenting. A 68-year-old male patient was admitted with acute anterior myocardial infarction. This patient had a history of BM...
متن کاملVery Late Bare Metal Stent Thrombosis
Very late stent thrombosis is a rare and not-well-understood complication after bare metal stent implantation. It usually presents as an ST elevation acute coronary syndrome and it is associated with high rates of morbidity and mortality. Pathophysiologic mechanisms are not well defined; nevertheless, recent studies have proposed a neoatherosclerotic process as the triggering mechanism. We pres...
متن کاملCoronary stent thrombosis in bare metal stents.
OBJECTIVE The incidence of coronary stent thrombosis has reduced with improved techniques and drugs. Nevertheless, clinical trials may not reflect real world practice due to the selective inclusion criteria, regional variations and more complex patients treated in day-to-day practice. We examined the frequency, predisposing factors and outcome of stent thrombosis in unselected patients undergoi...
متن کاملBare metal stent thrombosis and in-stent neoatherosclerosis.
BACKGROUND Very late stent thrombosis (VLST) was reported to occur even in patients with bare metal stent (BMS) implantation, although the annual incidence of VLST after BMS was much lower than that after drug-eluting stent implantation. Pathophysiologic mechanisms of VLST after BMS implantation remain largely unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS From September 2002 to February 2010, we identified 10...
متن کاملBare Metal Stent Thrombosis and In-Stent Neoatherosclerosis
Very late stent thrombosis occurs in patients with bare metal stent implantation, although the annual incidence is much lower than that after drug-eluting stent implantation. In-stent neoatherosclerosis with ruptured plaques and thin-cap fibroatheromas has been observed in bare metal stents. Atherosclerotic plaques harvested from patients with very late stent thrombosis and those with acute cor...
