Coronary rupture during stent implantation.
A 69-year-old patient with unstable angina presented to cardiac catheterization with a tight lesion in the mid right coronary artery (Figure 1A) and moderate lesions in the left main and left anterior descending coronary arteries. During coronary angioplasty, a stent was electively implanted in the right coronary artery, with good initial results. However, during subsequent aggressive, high-pre...
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...
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 کاملCoronary stent implantation technique: prolonged inflation time maximizes stent expansion.
OBJECTIVES To determine whether longer periods of stent balloon inflation result in greater minimal luminal diameter (MLD) as measured by quantitative coronary analysis (QCA), and to determine whether measured size correlated with that predicted by pressure-diameter nomograms. METHODS Seventy-four stents were implanted in 52 patients. Stent acquisitions at a steady inflation pressure were tak...
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...
