Comparison of Sirolimus and Paclitaxel-Eluting Stents for Complex Coronary Lesions: An Intravascular Ultrasound Study
BACKGROUND/AIMS Recent intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) studies of sirolimus-eluting stents (SES) and paclitaxel-eluting stents (PES) have demonstrated a significant reduction in neointimal hyperplasia (NIH) based on simple coronary lesions. In this study, we evaluated the efficacy of SES and PES using IVUS in complex coronary lesions. METHODS Eighty-seven patients in whom 95 drug-eluting sten...
متن کاملFour-year angiographic and intravascular ultrasound follow-up of patients treated with sirolimus-eluting stents.
BACKGROUND Despite the proven superiority of sirolimus-eluting stents (SESs) compared with bare stents in the first year after implantation, long-term outcomes of patients treated with these novel devices remain unknown. Our goal was to evaluate the clinical, angiographic, and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) outcomes of patients treated with SESs 4 years after implantation. METHODS AND RESULT...
متن کاملComparison of zotarolimus-eluting stents with sirolimus-eluting and paclitaxel-eluting stents: intimal hyperplasia and vascular changes assessed by volumetric intravascular ultrasound analysis.
BACKGROUND As a substudy of the large, randomized ZEST (Comparison of the Efficacy and Safety of Zotarolimus-Eluting Stent with Sirolimus-Eluting and PacliTaxel-Eluting Stent for Coronary Lesions) trial comparing first- and second-generation drug-eluting stents, we evaluated intimal hyperplasia (IH) and vascular changes using volumetric intravascular ultrasound analysis. METHODS AND RESULTS C...
متن کاملLate outcome of sirolimus-eluting stents: comparison of multidetector computed tomography with quantitative coronary angiography and intravascular ultrasound.
OBJECTIVE To assess the performance of multidetector computed tomography in determining late clinical outcomes of patients undergoing sirolimus-eluting stent implantation. METHODS Thirty patients, successfully submitted to sirolimus-eluting stent implantation for more than six months, were selected to participate in the study. All underwent invasive angiography and intravascular ultrasound fo...
متن کاملEconomic evaluation of sirolimus-eluting stents.
BACKGROUND Sirolimus-eluting stents have recently been shown to reduce the risk of restenosis among patients who undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Given that sirolimus-eluting stents cost about 4 times as much as conventional stents, and considering the volume of PCI procedures, the decision to use sirolimus-eluting stents has large economic implications. METHODS We performed ...
