A 66 year-old man , with previous history of diabetes mellitus and hypertension was admitted for an unstable angina.

The initial coronary angiography (6Fr catheter) showed a distal LM to proximal LAD tight lesion and no lesion on RCA.

Mechanisms of stent thrombosis analysed by optical coherence tomography: insights from the national PESTO French registry

na1
Aims: angiography has limited value for identifying the causes of stent thrombosis (ST). We studied a large cohort of patients by optical coherence tomography (OCT) to explore ST characteristics and mechanisms.

ABSTRACT

Aims: To assess whether a strategy of invasive management without stents in selected acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients with a large thrombus burden (LTB) might be feasible and safe.

AIMS : Recent data have reported that neoatherosclerosis could develop long after stent implantation and lead to subsequent rupture and acute coronary syndrome (ACS). We sought to identify the presence of in-stent neoatheroma (ISNA) in patients with very late stent thrombosis (VLST) using optical coherence tomography (OCT).
