Background: The benefit of complete revascularization (CR) during a primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with multivessel disease (MVD) is still not clear. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the impact of CR in a nonselected population from an all-comers prospective registry of patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) over a long period of time.
Methods And Results: Between 2004 and 2014, 671 noncardiogenic shock STEMI patients with MVD were included in the present study, of whom 522 were subjected to incomplete revascularization and 149 were subjected to CR. Patients in the CR group were younger [61 (SD 12) vs. 64 (SD 12.4) years old, P=0.001], more often subjected to femoral access (79.4 vs. 67.1%, P=0.002), and had a lower number of segments with lesion [2 (2.2) vs. 3 (3.4), P=0.001]. The CR group tended to have a lower 1-year major adverse cardiac event (MACE) rate (17.8 vs. 25.7%; P=0.05) that reached statistical significance at 2 years (19.4 vs. 28.5%, P=0.03). The rates of the individual endpoints were not different between groups. Independent predictors of 2-year MACE were age, femoral access, and previous PCI. Index CR was associated with lower MACE (hazard ratio 0.5, 0.36-0.79). MACE-free survival was higher in the CR group throughout the 2 years of follow-up.
Conclusion: In patients with STEMI and MVD undergoing culprit lesion PCI, preventive PCI in noninfarct coronary arteries with significant stenosis was associated with a lower risk of MACE compared with incomplete revascularization in this all-comers prospective registry.

Limited evidence exists regarding the long-term outcomes of true vs. non-true coronary bifurcation lesions (CBLs) treated with current-generation drug-eluting stents and intravascular imaging guidance. The SCVC (Sapporo Cardiovascular Clinic) registry was a prospective, single-center, all-comers registry enrolling 1,727 consecutive patients treated with bioresorbable polymer sirolimus-eluting stent (BP-SES) under complete imaging guidance.

This study aimed to examine contemporary results of the frozen elephant trunk (FET) procedure in an all-comers patient cohort. Between January 2017 and May 2024, a total of 132 consecutive patients with either aortic aneurysm ( = 32), acute aortic dissection ( = 32), or chronic aortic dissection ( = 68) underwent total aortic arch replacement employing the FET technique. In-hospital data were collected prospectively and included preoperative characteristics, intraoperative data, and follow-up results.

We present the cumulative percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) data of all comers (stable angina and acute coronary syndromes [ACS]) who presented to Hadi Clinic between January 2018 and December 2020. As a low-volume PCI centre in the Middle East, we wanted to find out if the outcomes of our PCI procedures are different from those of high-volume PCI centres in the UK and the Western world. Prospectively collected data of all comers for PCI (urgent and elective) were retrospectively analysed.

Article Synopsis
- Long-term outcomes of cardiovascular diseases in Eastern Europe, specifically in a Romanian PCI registry, were assessed, focusing on ethnic minorities like Hungarians and Roma.
- The study analyzed data from 6,867 patients over a median follow-up of 3.60 years, revealing a total of 1,064 cardiovascular-related deaths and 1,374 all-cause deaths, with ethnic minorities experiencing higher mortality rates.
- Findings indicated significantly worse long-term survival rates for Hungarian and Roma patients compared to the Romanian population, highlighting disparities in health outcomes among these groups.

The incidence, risk factors and prognostic implications of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients undergoing redo cardiac surgery are still poorly defined. We prospectively collected data on 394 consecutive redo patients between January 2011 and October 2020. Patients were divided into groups according to the occurrence of different degrees of postoperative AKI (No AKI vs.
