Clinical use of optical coherence tomography to identify angiographic silent stent thrombosis

OBJECTIVES Patients previously treated with coronary stents may suffer an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) without any evidence of thrombus formation on coronary angiography (CAG). This may be due to partial, nonocclusive stent thrombosis with microembolization. In this paper, we illustrate possible mechanisms both with optical coherence tomography (OCT) and histology. DESIGN We present two case...

Evaluation in 3 months duration of neointimal coverage after zotarolimus-eluting stent implantation by optical coherence tomography: the ENDEAVOR OCT trial.

OBJECTIVES We performed this study to investigate the vascular response in early period after zotarolimus-eluting stent (ZES) (Endeavor Sprint, Medtronic CardioVascular, Minneapolis, Minnesota) implantation. BACKGROUND The ZES has different characteristics, with biocompatible polymer and rapid drug-elution, compared with the first-generation drug-eluting stents (DES). METHODS The ENDEAVOR O...

Self-expanding versus balloon-expandable stents in acute myocardial infarction: results from the APPOSITION II study: self-expanding stents in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.

OBJECTIVES This study sought to investigate whether self-expanding stents are more effective than balloon-expandable stents for reducing stent malapposition at 3 days after implantation in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention. BACKGROUND Acute myocardial infarction is associated with vasoconstriction and large thrombus ...

Simple versus complex approaches to treating coronary bifurcation lesions: direct assessment of stent strut apposition by optical coherence tomography.

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Stenting of coronary bifurcation lesions carries an increased risk of stent deformation and malapposition. Anatomical and pathological observations indicate that the high stent thrombosis rate in bifurcations is due to malapposition of stent struts. METHODS Strut apposition was assessed with optical coherence tomography (OCT) in bifurcation lesions treated either u...

Late stent malapposition combined by thrombus resolution after primary stenting in acute myocardial infarction: optical coherence tomography findings.

The late stent malapposition (LSM) is defined as a separation of the stent struts from the intima of the coronary artery wall which was not present just after implanting the stent. Although drug-eluting stents (DESs) dramatically reduce the in-stent restenosis, several studies have reported a higher frequency of LSM on follow-up intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) examination after DES implantation...
