Longitudinal deformation of a third generation zotarolimus eluting stent: “The concertina returns!”
نویسندگان
چکیده
In the current case series we describe two cases of longitudinal stent deformation in ostial lesions treated with a new generation zotarolimus eluting stent and review current literature on longitudinal stent deformation. Historically not a common occurrence, longitudinal deformation occurred mainly in Promus Element everolimus eluting stents, which had only two rather than the commonly used 3 links between stent rings. Longitudinal deformation commonly occurs secondary to compression of the proximal edge of the stent by either the guide catheters, or intravascular balloons and imaging catheters. The degree of deformation however, depends on the longitudinal strength and design of the stent.

BACKGROUND The Orsiro Hybrid sirolimus-eluting stent is a newly developed third-generation drug-eluting stent, featuring a unique dual-polymer mix. An active bioabsorbable polymer delivers the anti-proliferative drug, sirolimus, via controlled release, while a passive biocompatible polymeric coating shields the metallic strut from surrounding tissue, preventing interaction. To date, the Orsiro ...

The safety and efficacy of coronary stents, utilized for treatment of ischemic heart disease, have been evaluated extensively. In comparison with bare-metal stents, first-generation drug-eluting stents more than halved the need for target lesion revascularization, but long-term safety has been questioned, as the first-generation drug-eluting stents seem to be associated with a small, but increa...
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 ...
