Effect of Lumen Narrowing Within Coronary Stents on Proximal and Distal Vessel Segments Following Bare Metal Stent Implantation

Effect of Lumen Narrowing Within Coronary Stents on Proximal and Distal Vessel Segments Following Bare Metal Stent Implantation

Adjacent reference vessel response to smaller lumens at stented segments was examined with 3-dimensional intravascular ultrasound analysis. In 128 patients after bare metal stent implantation, minimal lumen area (MLA) within the stent and average lumen area at distal/proximal adjacent reference segm...

Zusammenfassung:Adjacent reference vessel response to smaller lumens at stented segments was examined with 3-dimensional intravascular ultrasound analysis. In 128 patients after bare metal stent implantation, minimal lumen area (MLA) within the stent and average lumen area at distal/proximal adjacent reference segments (5 mm) were obtained at baseline and follow-up. In the smaller in-stent MLA group (MLA
