Coronary aneurysm after drug-eluting stent implantation.
The use of drug-eluting stents aiming at by-pass the disadvantage of stainless steel stents have been associated to late thrombosis after withdrawal of anti-platelet agents. We report a case with another complication, the development of a coronary aneurysm in the stent area more than three years after index procedure. Late chronic local inflammatory responses may be responsible for the weakenin...
متن کاملPredictors of restenosis after coronary stent implantation.
OBJECTIVES We sought to determine predictors of restenosis after coronary stenting (CS) in a consecutive series of patients. BACKGROUND Although stenting in highly selected patient groups reduces restenosis, the results of stenting in a heterogeneous patient group and the effects of clinical and procedural factors on stent restenosis are currently unclear. METHODS We analyzed the 6-month an...
متن کاملCirculating monocytes and in-stent neointima after coronary stent implantation.
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between circulating monocytes and in-stent neointimal volume at six-month follow-up. BACKGROUND In-stent neointimal hyperplasia is the main contributing factor to in-stent restenosis. There is increasing evidence that white blood cells (WBCs), especially monocytes, play a central role in restenosis after stent implantation. ...
متن کاملThe risk of stent thrombosis after coronary arterial stent implantation.
a w a t t a c s t v k p s ne of the most dreaded complications after percutaneous oronary arterial angioplasty is stent thrombosis. This erious untoward event usually results in acute myocardial nfarction with high mortality. Stent thrombosis often ocurs early, within 30 days of implantation, in patients who eceive bare metal coronary arterial stents. However, paients undergoing drug-eluting st...
