Abstract:
PURPOSE: Bifurcation stenting is thought to be associated with delayed healing and a subsequent risk of stent failure. The aim of this study was to further evaluate healing of thin-strut bioabsorbable polymer everolimus-eluting stents (EES) post bifurcation stenting by optical coherence tomography (OCT) including grey-scale signal intensity (GSI) analysis. METHODS: Patients undergoing bifurcation stenting with a planned two-stent approach using EES with OCT follow-up at 3-6 months post-stenting...     »
