1 PCI for Left Anterior Descending Artery Ostial Stenosis

2 Why do you hesitate PCI for LAD ostial stenosis?

3 LAD Ostial Lesion Limitations of PCI High elastic recoil Involvement of the distal left main coronary artery Concern for major side branch occlusion

4 Is it sate to stent in LAD ostium? Yes we believe it.

5 LAD Ostial Lesion Stenting.. Stenting with precise location may be a safe and feasible technique with an acceptable clinical outcome. Park SJ, et al, Cathet Cardiovasc Intervent. 49: , 2000

6 LAD Ostial Lesion Stenting.. Subjects : 111 patients, 111 Lesions Park SJ, et al, Cathet Cardiovasc Intervent. 49: , 2000

14 Which Stent is better? LAD Ostial Lesion High radial force Good visibility Park SJ, et al, Cathet Cardiovasc Intervent. 49: , 2000

16 Is side branch occlusion disastrous as expected? Yes, but we have a tips.

17 LCX Occlusion during PCI LCX ostial compromise after stenting may be related with clinical recurrence. (20% of restenosis cases) However.. Park SJ, et al, Cathet Cardiovasc Intervent. 49: , 2000

18 Changes of LCX Ostial Diameter after Stenting LCX Ostial Diameter(mm) Baseline After Stenting Follow-up Park SJ, et al, Cathet Cardiovasc Intervent. 49: , 2000

20 Only Factors Associated with the LCX Ostial Diameter Change The presence of stent coverage of the LCX ostium>50% Park SJ, et al, Cathet Cardiovasc Intervent. 49: , 2000

21 For the Optimal Positioning of the Stents Superzooming technique(x 8) RAO caudal or LAD caudal view Stents with visible markers Park SJ, et al, Cathet Cardiovasc Intervent. 49: , 2000

22 Current Past Strategy recommended Strategy Precise placement Proximal strut of stent extended into the distal LM Park SJ, et al, Cathet Cardiovasc Intervent. 49: , 2000

23 Conclusions Stenting of ostial LAD stenosis may be a safe and feasible technique with an acceptable clinical outcome. Park SJ, et al, Cathet Cardiovasc Intervent. 49: , 2000

24 Can debulking be a useful adjunct to stenting?

25 LAD Ostial Lesion Debulking.. Aggressive debulking might reduce the residual plaque burden and subsequently the restenosis. However, it has limitation to prevent elastic recoil.

26 LAD Ostial Lesion Debulking and Stenting Synergistic effect may be expected to combine removal of plaque and inhibition of elastic recoil.

27 Debulking and Stenting Minimal lumen diameter mm Reference vessel : 3.2 ± 0.5 mm Pre Post Follow-up Bramucci E, et al, Am J Med. 90: , 2002

28 Debulking and Stenting Restenosis rate : 13.2% Bramucci E, et al, Am J Med. 90: , 2002

30 Purpose Since March 2000 Prospective Randomized Comparison Study of DCA Followed by Stenting and Stenting Alone for LAD Ostial Stenosis SJ Park, et al, J Am Coll Cardiol (In press)

31 Inclusions Ostial stenosis : > 50% diameter Stenosis arising within 3 mm of the LAD orifice All patients were either symptomatic or ischemic by non-invasive testing De novo lesion SJ Park, et al, J Am Coll Cardiol (In press)

33 Methods Angiographic Analysis IVUS Analysis SJ Park, et al, J Am Coll Cardiol (In press)

34 Follow-up Clinical follow-up was performed by making out patients clinic and telephone interview each 3 month and follow-up coronary angiography was taken at 6 months later. SJ Park, et al, J Am Coll Cardiol (In press)

35 Antithrombotic Regimen Aspirin 200 mg QD indefinitely, Ticlopidine 250 mg BID or Clopidogrel 75 mg QD for 1 month SJ Park, et al, J Am Coll Cardiol (In press)

46 Conclusions Debulking procedure with stenting gained greater luminal area, but it did not lead to lower restenosis rate due to the tendency of higher late loss. SJ Park, et al, J Am Coll Cardiol (In press)

47 IVUS analysis Serial (pre-intervention, post-dca, post-intervention) IVUS evaluation : 67 (78%) patients SJ Park, et al, J Am Coll Cardiol (In press)

53 Suggestions The device limitation for substantial reduction of plaque burden might explain in part the lack of restenosis-reducing effect of DCA prior to stenting. More effective debulking with new debulking device might be needed to improve angiographic result. Debulking might be beneficial in lesions with positive remodeling.

62 Conclusions We consistently suggest that the final stent area is the most important determinant for prediction of restenosis. The final stent area 9 mm 2 might be a good guideline of optimal PCI for LAD ostial stenosis. SJ Park, et al, J Am Coll Cardiol (In press)
