Coronary Stents

Abstract: Coronary artery stents revolutionized the practice of interventional cardiology after they were first introduced in the mid-1980s. Since then, there have been significant developments in their design, the most notable of which has been the introduction of drug-eluting stents. This paper reviews the benefits, risks, and current status of Food and Drug Administration-approved drug-eluting stents.

“…Second generation drug-eluting stents (DES) such as everolimus-eluting stents (EES) and zotarolimus-eluting stents are the treatment of choice for ACS patients because of their superiority in terms of reducing subsequent revascularizations [3]. The most critical limit of DES as metal stent is the permanent caging of the coronary vessel, which increases the risk of neointima proliferation and very late stent thrombosis (ST) and may render surgical revascularization no longer feasible for patients with severe diffuse disease [4][5][6][7]. Recently, bioresorbable vascular scaffolds (BRS) were introduced, which provide temporary vessel scaffolding with drug delivery capacity but do not carry the limitations of a permanent metallic stent in the long term [8,9].…”

“…Fast-release ZES (Endeavour, Medtronic) has shown a significant difference in clinical performance against paclitaxel-eluting stents (PES), as shown by significant risk reduction in late and very late stent thrombosis, cardiac death, and myocardial infarction [14,15]. On the other hand, at longer follow-up the excellent safety profile did not translate into efficacy, with inferior rates of angiographic surrogates of restenosis and target vessel failure when compared to SES and PES [15][16][17]. Following these results, fast-release ZES were replaced by slow-release counterparts yielding improved neointimal inhibition [7] and non-inferior clinical outcomes when compared to everolimus eluting stents [18].…”

“…[3] Fourty years ago, coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) was the popular revascularization treatment used to treat obstructive coronary artery diseases. However, it was claimed that frequent coronary closures occurred and hence emergency surgical revascularization was necessary [4,5].…”
