| heal.abstract | Polytetrafluoroethylene-covered stents (PCS) were recently proposed as a new modality mainly for the treatment of saphenous vein graft lesions, but restenosis occurring principally at the edges restricted their clinical use in the management of coronary aneurysms and perforations.Aims: To investigate the safety and effectiveness of the overlapping implantation of drug-eluting stents (DES) with PCS in clinical scenarios where the latter are indicated.Methods: Since April 2002, when DES were introduced in clinical practice, 14 consecutive patients were -treated with overlapping implantation of PCS with DES in 3 centres. Seven patients were treated for coronary aneurysms, 5 for coronary perforations and 2 for branch occlusion. The incidence of any major adverse cardiac events defined as death, myocardial infarction (MI), and target vessel revascularisation (TVR) was retrospectively evaluated. A control angiography was available in 13 patients, and quantitative coronary angiography was performed before and after the intervention and at follow-up to evaluate restenosis rate and late loss.Results: At a mean clinical follow-up of 21.9 months there were no deaths or MI's, while one patient with occlusive restenosis underwent successful TVR (7.7%). At angiographic follow-up (mean: 9.7 months) there was one patient with restenosis (7.7%), who had a total occlusion. After excluding the patient with the occlusive restenosis mean diameter stenosis was 22.4+/-11.7% and late loss was 0.18+/-0.35 mm at follow-up. No early or late stent thrombosis occurred.Conclusion: Overlapping implantation of PCS with DES seems to be a safe and effective therapeutic modality demonstrating a low incidence of clinical and angiographic restenosis. | en |
