چکیده

Percutaneous coronary intervention with stent placement is one of the most frequently performed procedures in the western world. Patients with coronary stents need to be on dual antiplatelet therapy in order to minimize the risk of stent thrombosis. When these patients undergo surgical procedures, the risk of stent thrombosis needs to be balanced against the risk of bleeding in the perioperative period. We review the definition of stent thrombosis and its incidence, the perioperative risk factors associated with stent thrombosis and with bleeding owing to dual antiplatelet therapy. Based on the published guidelines, we also review different management strategies of patients with coronary stents, or who develop stent thrombosis in the perioperative period. We also present some future perioperative management strategies, illustrating the possibilities and challenges offered by newer antiplatelet agents.

They have two major drawbacks: acute/subacute stent thrombosis, successfully managed with antiplatelet therapy immediately after stent implantation; and in-stent restenosis, prevention of which has been achieved with the development of drug-eluting stents....

[Perioperative antiplatelet therapy of patients with coronary stents].

The most feared complication after coronary stent implantation is the acutely occurring stent thrombosis, which usually leads to a myocardial infarction with its relatively high mortality. Dual antiplatelet therapy with acetylsalicylic acid and clopidogrel is currently the standard therapy after coronary stent implantation to prevent a life-threatening stent thrombosis. Surgery appears to incre...
