Natural consequence of post-intervention stent malapposition, thrombus, tissue prolapse, and dissection assessed by optical coherence tomography at mid-term follow-up.
We performed this study to clarify natural consequences of abnormal structures (stent malapposition, thrombus, tissue prolapse, and stent edge dissection) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).. Thirty-five patients treated with 40 drug-eluting stents underwent serial optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging immediately after PCI and at the 8-month follow-up. Among a total of 73 929 struts in every frame, 431 struts (26 stents) showed malapposition immediately after PCI. Among these, 49 remained malapposed at the follow-up examination. The mean distance between the strut and vessel wall (S-V distance) of persistent malapposed struts on post-stenting OCT images was significantly longer than that of resolved malapposed struts (342 ± 99 vs. 210 ± 49 μm; P <0.01). Based on receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis, an S-V distance ≤260 µm on post-stenting OCT images was the corresponding cut-off point for resolved malapposed struts (sensitivity: 89.3%, specificity: 83.7%, area under the curve = 0.884). Additionally, 108 newly appearing malapposed struts were observed on follow-up OCT, probably due to thrombus dissolution or plaque regression. Thrombus was observed in 15 stents post-PCI. Serial OCT analysis revealed persistent thrombus in 1 stent, resolved thrombus in 14 stents, and late-acquired thrombus in 8 stents. Tissue prolapse observed in 38 stents had disappeared at the follow-up. All eight stent edge dissections were repaired at the follow-up.. Most cases of stent malapposition with a short S-V distance, thrombus, tissue prolapse, or minor stent edge dissection improved during the follow-up. These OCT-detected minor abnormalities may not require additional treatment.

Characterization of plaque prolapse after drug-eluting stent implantation in diabetic patients: a three-dimensional volumetric intravascular ultrasound outcome study.
The aim of this research was to evaluate the plaque prolapse (PP) phenomenon after bare-metal (BMS) and drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation in patients with diabetes mellitus using 3-dimensional volumetric intravascular ultrasound (IVUS).. Plaque prolapse has been observed in up to 22% of patients treated with BMS. Diabetic patients have a larger atherothrombotic burden and may be more prone to have PP. However, the incidence of PP and its clinical impact after DES implantation is unknown.. Three-dimensional IVUS was performed after intervention and at 9-month follow-up in 168 patients with diabetes (205 lesions) treated with bare BX Velocity stents ((BX Velocity/Sonic, Cordis, Johnson & Johnson) (BMS, n = 65), sirolimus-eluting stents (Cypher, Cordis) (SES, n = 69), and paclitaxel-eluting stents (Taxus, Boston Scientific, Natick, Massachusetts) (PES, n = 71). Intravascular ultrasound data at the sites of PP were compared with stented segments without PP in each lesion. Outcomes were evaluated at 9- and 12-month follow-up.. There were 42 sites of PP (BMS = 11, SES = 11, PES = 20, p = NS) in 34 stented segments of 205 (16.6%) lesions. Plaque prolapse was more frequent in the right coronary artery and in chronic total occlusion lesions. Post-procedure PP volume was 1.95 mm3 in BMS, 2.96 mm3 in SES, and 4.53 mm3 in PES. At follow-up, tissue volume increased at PP sites in both BMS and PES, but not after SES. Neointimal proliferation was similar between PP and non-PP sites. Stent thrombosis and restenosis rates were similar between PP and non-PP lesions.. The incidence of PP after implantation of new generation tubular stents in patients with diabetes remains high. Drug-eluting stent implantation was not associated with increased risk of PP. Plaque prolapse was not associated with stent thrombosis or increased neointimal proliferation.
