3 Restenosis - Capodanno CardioLucca, November 28, 2014 Slide 3 Prognostic Role of In-Stent Restenosis 10,004 PCI patients with follow-up angiography from the DHZ Restenosis registry (26.4% ISR) Predictors of 4-year mortality HR 95% CI P value Restenosis at routine control angiography Age (for each 10-year increase) <0.001 Diabetes mellitus <0.001 Current smoking habit Left ventricular ejection fraction (for each 5% decrease) <0.001 Female gender <0.001 The impact of restenosis was confirmed in asymptomatic patients undergoing routine control angiography. Mortality was not impacted by the decision to perform TVR Cassese S. et al. Eur Heart J [Epub ahead of print]

8 Restenosis - Capodanno CardioLucca, November 28, 2014 Slide 8 Underlying Mechanisms of Restenosis 1. Stent underexpansion Underdeployment due to undersizing Underlying heavily calcified lesion 2. Geographical missing ( candy wrapper restenosis) Stent misplacement Stents not fully covering the underlying lesion 3. Stent fracture 4. Drug resistance and local hypersensitivity reactions Alfonso F, et al. J Am Coll Cardiol. 2014;63:

11 Restenosis - Capodanno CardioLucca, November 28, 2014 Slide 11 Plain Old Balloon Angioplasty (POBA) 1. Technically straigthforward 2. Satisfactory acute results, particularly in focal patterns, but high long-term restenosis rates 3. Technique Review the index procedure Favors noncompliant s to avoid dog bone effects, with a 1.1:1 -to-artery ratio. Target the narrowing rather than the entire stented segment Avoid slippage outside the stent ( watermelon seeding phenomenon) 4. Outdated

13 Restenosis - Capodanno CardioLucca, November 28, 2014 Slide 13 Cutting Standard catheter with lateral blades Offers protection against watermelon seeding, anchoring the within the target lesion, preventing slippage related problems Deeply incises neointimal tissue and, at least theoretically, may favor subsequent extrusion Superior than POBA in reducing slippage and need for unplanned stent implantation (RESCUT trial)

TCT 2014, Washington DC

29 Restenosis - Capodanno CardioLucca, November 28, 2014 Slide ESC/EACTS Guidelines on myocardial revascularization Management of restenosis Repeat PCI is recommended, if technically feasible. I C DES are recommended for the treatment of in-stent re-stenosis (within BMS or DES). Drug-coated s are recommended for the treatment of in-stent restenosis (within BMS or DES). IVUS and/or OCT should be considered to detect stent-related mechanical problems. I I IIa A A C Windecker et al. Euro Heart J 2014 [Ahead of print]

30 Restenosis - Capodanno CardioLucca, November 28, 2014 Slide 30 Closing Remarks / 1 1. Although the advent of DES has reduced the incidence of ISR, treatment of this clinical entity remains a prevailing clinical problem. 2. The substrate of ISR encompasses a pathological spectrum ranging from smooth muscle cell proliferation to neoatherosclerosis. 3. Intracoronary imaging provides unique insights into the underlying etiology of ISR, but its role in optimizing the clinical results of these reinterventions still remains unsettled.

31 Restenosis - Capodanno CardioLucca, November 28, 2014 Slide 31 Closing Remarks / 2 4. Among currently available therapeutic modalities, DES and DCB provide the best clinical and angiographic results in patients with ISR In a fast-evolving field, second generation DES were recently found to be better than DCB for DES-ISR in RIBS IV DCB may be preferred over DES in patients with ISR and multiple metal layers, in those with large side branches, and in those at high bleeding risk undergoing prolonged dual antiplatelet therapy. 5. CABG should be considered for frequent flyers patients, although this will usually be dictated by the prognostic relevance of the restenotic lesion. dcapodanno@gmail.com
