We used intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) to evaluate recurrence after sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) implantation treatment of in-stent restenosis (ISR).
Forty-eight ISR lesions (41 patients with objective evidence of ischemia) were treated with SES. Recurrent ISR was identified in 11 lesions (all focal); repeat revascularization was performed in 10. These were compared with 16 patients (19 lesions) without recurrence as documented by angiography. Nine of 11 recurrent lesions had a minimum stent area (MSA) <5.0 mm2 versus 5 of 19 nonrecurrent lesions (P=0.003); 7 of 11 recurrent lesions had an MSA <4.0 mm2 versus 4 of 19 nonrecurrent lesions (P=0.02); and 4 of 11 recurrent lesions had an MSA <3.0 mm2 versus 1 of 19 nonrecurrent lesions (P=0.03). A gap between SESs was identified in 3 of 11 recurrences versus 1 of 19 nonrecurrent lesions.
Stent underexpansion is a significant cause of failure after SES implantation treatment of ISR.
我们使用血管内超声(IVUS)评估西罗莫司洗脱支架(SES)植入治疗支架内再狭窄(ISR)后的复发情况。
48处ISR病变(41例有客观缺血证据的患者)接受了SES治疗。11处病变(均为局灶性)被确定为复发性ISR;10处进行了再次血运重建。将这些与16例(19处病变)经血管造影证实无复发的患者进行比较。11处复发性病变中有9处最小支架面积(MSA)<5.0 mm2,而19处非复发性病变中有5处(P = 0.003);11处复发性病变中有7处MSA <4.0 mm2,而19处非复发性病变中有4处(P = 0.02);11处复发性病变中有4处MSA <3.0 mm2,而19处非复发性病变中有1处(P = 0.03)。11处复发病变中有3处发现SES之间存在间隙,而19处非复发性病变中有1处。
支架扩张不足是SES植入治疗ISR后失败的重要原因。
