Background: One of the most serious complications of coronary artery stenting is restenosis and in-stent thrombosis; their prevalence can reach 20-25%. Stent thrombosis can be acute (up to 24 hours), subacute (24 hours to 30 days), late (30 days to 1 year), and very late (> 1 year after previous stenting). In the patients with COVID-19 in intensive care units, the proportion of those with elevated troponin levels reached 25%.

Article Synopsis
  • Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has greatly improved treatments for coronary artery disease, but in-stent restenosis (ISR) remains a significant issue, especially when complicated by calcification.
  • Various techniques exist for treating calcified ISR, including super-high-pressure balloon dilation, atherectomy methods, and intravascular lithotripsy (IVL).
  • This case report discusses a patient with severe, calcified ISR in a large artery, showcasing the use of shockwave lithotripsy combined with balloon dilation to improve stent expansion, highlighting the effectiveness of innovative approaches for difficult ISR cases.

Article Synopsis
  • * Out of 130 patients with definite ST, 45 underwent ICI, and the analysis found that ICI-guided management improved survival rates free of cardiac death or target lesion revascularization (CD-TLR) at 2 years to 93% compared to 73% for those not guided by ICI.
  • * The results suggest that ICI can significantly influence treatment decisions, leading to better outcomes in patients with ST, particularly by identifying the main mechanisms causing thrombosis.

Background: In patients with in-stent restenosis (ISR) bioresorbable vascular scaffolds (BVS) provide similar results to drug-coated balloons (DCBs) but are inferior to drug-eluting stents (DES) at 1 year. However, the long-term efficacy of BVS in these patients remains unknown.

Objectives: This study sought to assess the long-term safety and efficacy of BVS in patients with ISR.

Background: Neoatherosclerosis (NA) is associated with stent failure. However, systematic studies on the manifestations of NA and neovascularization (NV) at different stages after drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation are lacking. Moreover, the relationship between NA and NV in in-stent restenosis (ISR) has not been reported.
