"Lone aspiration thrombectomy" without stenting in young patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction.

Unlabelled: Plaque rupture with thrombotic occlusion without severe underlying coronary atherosclerosis is frequently observed during primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). These lesions are stented even if post thrombectomy mild underlying coronary artery disease (CAD) is noted. The value of mechanical thrombus aspiration alone "lone aspiration thrombectomy" (LAT) without stenting is not well studied.
