Mechanisms of in-stent restenosis In-stent restenosis is the result of: Inappropriate stent expansion or Neointimal hyperplasia or both V Spanos et al. The challenge of in-stent restenosis: insights from intravascular ultrasound review article (Eur Heart J. 2003 Jan;24(2):138-50 )

An unsuccessful trial - QuaDDS stent CONCLUSION: This single case report highlights the problem that late coronary thrombosis following paclitaxel eluting stent implantation may be an important limitation of restenosis prevention by some drug eluting stents. In the absence of other data, we think that combined antiplatelet treatment should be continued in the long term, unless it is contraindicated F. Liistro, A.

The CoStar stent: PISCES Study Lowest in-stent late loss (0.38 mm, and 0.30 mm, p <0.01) and volume obstruction (8% and 5%, p <0.01) in the 30-day release groups (10µg, 30µg). 8.6% MACE for DES: death 0.5%, myocardial infarction 2.7%, and TLR 5.3%. P. Serruys et al. ( JACC 2005;46:253-260 )

CONCLUSIONS DES are complex devices with different characteristics and should be judged from their results as regards efficacy and safety There are second generation DES that have shown superiority compared to first generation (Cypher or Taxus) stents DES technology will continue to evolve aiming to devices with higher efficacy and safety
