Stent strut thickness and restenosis.
To the Editor: Kastrati et al recently reported1 significantly less restenosis with lesions randomized to deployment of one stent design (ACS RX Multi-Link, [ML]) than with a related design (Multi-Link RX Duet, [DT]) from the same manufacturer (Guidant). They attributed the difference in restenosis to the difference in strut thickness. Although the two stent designs do differ significantly in s...
متن کاملAssessment of stent strut endothelialization in iliac arteries of rabbits.
BACKGROUND Fast post-implantation stent endothelialization is desirable for theoretically reducing the possibility of stent thrombosis. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the extent of sirolimus-eluting stent strut endothelialization (delivered from the luminal and abluminal aspects or abluminal aspect only) in the iliac arteries of rabbits. METHODS The iliac arteries of 10 rabbits were implanted with f...
متن کاملLongitudinal Stent-Strut Injury at the Distal End of a Newer-generation Drug-eluting Stent
https://e-kcj.org An 86-year-old man with a recent myocardial infarction underwent coronary angiography, which revealed total occlusion of the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) ostium and intermediate stenosis of the proximal left circumflex artery (LCX) (Figure 1A, Supplementary Figure 1A and 1B). After stenting with a 3.5×38-mm Resolute IntegrityTM (Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN, US...
متن کاملHemodynamically driven vein graft remodeling: a systems biology approach.
Despite intense investigation over several decades to understand the mechanisms of vein graft failure, few therapeutic modalities have emerged. Emphasis using standard reductionist approaches has been focused on cataloging the components involved in the early events following vein graft implantation, but limited insight has been gained in understanding the dynamic interaction of these component...
متن کاملStent "concertina:" stent design does matter.
The development of modern coronary stent platforms has transformed the landscape of interventional cardiology. Contemporary coronary stents are much more deliverable than older-generation stents. However, longitudinal deformation has emerged as a "new" complication in modern coronary stent platforms. Although most reported cases of longitudinal stent deformation involve mechanical or technical ...
