Effectiveness of the Sirolimus-Eluting Stent in the Treatment of Saphenous Vein Graft Disease

ABSTRACT: Background. Recurrent restenosis following vascular brachytherapy (VBT) has been reported in up to one-third of the patients enrolled in clinical trials. The long-term outcome of repeat percutaneous intervention (PCI) after failed...

Sirolimus-eluting Stents for the Treatment of Atherosclerotic Ostial Lesions

ABSTRACT: The use of bare stents for the percutaneous intervention of saphenous vein bypass grafts (SVGs) is associated with a high subsequent rate of restenosis. To assess the impact of the sirolimus-eluting stent (SES), we studied 19...

Ostial atherosclerotic lesions constitute a distinct substrate for percutaneous interventions, as they differ from the other lesion sites in management strategies and in clinical outcomes. Since the lesions are more likely fibrotic and...

The Efficacy of Sirolimus-eluting Stents Versus Bare Metal Stents in Diabetic Patients Undergoing Elective Percutaneous Coronary

Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is superior to thrombolysis in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), even when the latter is administered shortly after the onset of symptoms.1 Furthermore, stenting has...
