Vessel size and long-term outcome after coronary stent placement.
BACKGROUND The role of coronary stenting in the treatment of patients with small vessels is not well defined. The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of vessel size on long-term clinical and angiographic outcome after coronary stent placement. METHODS AND RESULTS The study comprised 2602 patients with successful stent implantation for symptomatic coronary artery disease. Pa...
متن کاملResolute zotarolimus eluting stent for treatment of long coronary lesions.
Historically the treatment of long coronary lesions required overlapping stents, which has been associated with higher incidence of cardiovascular events. The current availability of long drug eluting stentsizes has enabled treatment of such lesions with one, or at least fewer stents e reducing cost and areas of stent overlap. However, longer lesion and stent length continues to be associated w...
متن کاملLong-term clinical and angiographic follow-up after coronary stent placement in native coronary arteries.
BACKGROUND Although coronary stents have been proved effective in reducing clinical cardiac events for up to 3 to 5 years, longer term clinical and angiographic outcomes have not yet been fully clarified. METHODS AND RESULTS To evaluate longer term (7 to 11 years) outcome, clinical and angiographic follow-up information was analyzed in 405 patients with successful stenting in native coronary ...
متن کاملComparison of sirolimus-eluting stent, paclitaxel-eluting stent, and bare metal stent in the treatment of long coronary lesions.
OBJECTIVE This study compared the efficacy of the sirolimus-eluting stent (SES), the paclitaxel-eluting stent (PES), and the bare metal stent (BMS) for long coronary lesions. BACKGROUND The outcome of drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation in long coronary lesions remains unclear. METHODS The study involved 527 patients with de novo long coronary lesions (> or = 24 mm), which were treated wi...
متن کاملStent treatment of coronary artery bifurcation lesions.
In percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs), the treatment of bifurcation lesions is a challenge to the interventional cardiologist. PCI operators, in general, use the term coronary artery bifurcation (from latin furca 1⁄4 fork, branch): (i) when a coronary artery divides into two equally important branches or (ii) when a main branch gives away a side branch, which is large enough to be of ha...
