简要总结
The aim of this study is to compare vessel healing at 9 months using OCT imaging for two different treatment techniques for treating bifurcation lesions. Quantitative assessment of OCT images will be used to assess re-endothelialization and quality of strut apposition to the vessel wall.
详细描述
Background: There is an ongoing controversy over the efficacy and safety of different bifurcation stenting techniques. Critical considerations are the rate of restenosis at the side branch ostium, and completeness of healing at sites of overlap of stent struts, which may affect the risk of stent thrombosis.
Methods: Patients with complex bifurcation lesions with involvement of a significant side branch requiring a stent are randomized into two treatment arms. The first group of 20 patients (group I) is treated with the AXXESS Biolimus A9 Bifurcation Stent System (Devax, Inc, Lake Forest CA), where additional everolimus-eluting Xience V stents (Abbott Vascular, Santa Clara, CA) are implanted into the distal main branch and the side branch as required. The second group of 20 patients (group II) is treated with the culotte technique using everolimus-eluting Xience V stents. Kissing balloon dilatation using non-compliant balloons will complete the index procedure in all cases. At 9 months, control angiography (with QCA using dedicated software) and OCT (of both main vessel and side branch) is performed.
Assessment of Results:
- EP: stent strut coverage and stent strut apposition, assessed with OCT at 9 months.
- EP: restenosis, restenosis at SB ostium, MACE, stent thrombosis.
