Contribution of Stent Underexpansion to Recurrence After Sirolimus-Eluting Stent Implantation for In-Stent Restenosis

TLDR
Stent underexpansion is a significant cause of failure after sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) implantation treatment of in-stent restenosis (ISR).
Abstract
Background— We used intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) to evaluate recurrence after sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) implantation treatment of in-stent restenosis (ISR). Methods and Results— 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. Conclusions— Stent underexpansion is a significant cause of failure after SES implantation treatment of ISR.

TL;DR: Based upon the current available evidence, an algorithm for the treatment approaches to DES restenosis is proposed and its pattern is predominantly focal.

Current treatment of in-stent restenosis

TL;DR: Clinical trial data is reviewed with currently available therapeutic modalities, including DES and drug-coated balloons, in patients presenting with ISR within bare-metal stents or DES in patients with in-stent restenosis.

Effect of intravascular ultrasound-guided vs angiography- guided everolimus-eluting stent implantation: The IVUS-XPL randomized clinical trial

TL;DR: The use of IVUS-guided everolimus-eluting stent implantation, compared with angiography-guided stent implants, resulted in a significantly lower rate of the composite of major adverse cardiac events at 1 year, primarily due to lower risk of target lesion revascularization.

2021 ACC/AHA/SCAI Guideline for Coronary Artery Revascularization

TL;DR: The guideline for coronary artery revascularization replaces the 2011 coronary artery bypass graft surgery and the 2011 and 2015 percutaneous coronary intervention guidelines, providing a patient-centric approach to guide clinicians in the treatment of patients with significant coronary artery disease undergoing coronary revascularisation as well as the supporting documentation to encourage their use as mentioned in this paper .

Sirolimus-eluting stents versus standard stents in patients with stenosis in a native coronary artery.

TL;DR: In this randomized clinical trial involving patients with complex coronary lesions, the use of a sirolimus-eluting stent had a consistent treatment effect, reducing the rates of restenosis and associated clinical events in all subgroups analyzed.

Angiographic Patterns of In-Stent Restenosis Classification and Implications for Long-Term Outcome

TL;DR: An angiographic classification of ISR according to the geographic distribution of intimal hyperplasia in reference to the implanted stent is developed and may be used for appropriate and early patient triage for clinical and investigational purposes.
