RESUMO
The appropriate stent platform for treating coronary bifurcation lesions (CBLs) remains controversial. Previous bench tests have demonstrated the superiority of a 2-link cell design to 3-link cell design for creating inter-strut dilation at the side branch ostium. This randomized multicenter prospective BEGIN trial compared the biodegradable polymer-based biolimus A9-eluting stent (2-link BES) with the durable polymer-based cobalt chromium everolimus-eluting stent (3-link EES) in 226 patients with de novo CBLs. Patients with true bifurcations, defined as > 50% stenosis in the main vessel and side branch (SB) and an SB diameter > 2.25 mm, were enrolled. Guide wire re-crossing to the distal cell (near the carina) in the jailed SB and final kissing inflation were recommended. The SB angiographic endpoint was < 50% stenosis diameter. Left-main CBLs (13.5% vs. 13.0%) and 2-stent technique (30.6% vs. 22.6%) rates were similar. The primary endpoints (minimum lumen diameter at the SB ostium measured at an independent core laboratory at the 8-month follow-up) were comparable (1.64 ± 0.50 mm vs. 1.63 ± 0.51 mm, p = 0.976). There was no significant difference in composite outcomes of cardiac death, myocardial infarction, or target vascular revascularization at 12 months (7.4% vs. 8.0%, p = 0.894). Two-link BES and 3-link EES showed similar 8-month angiographic and 1-year clinical outcomes for true CBLs.

A relationship between serum polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) and cardiovascular disease has been reported; however, the existence of a relationship between serum PUFAs and extent of vessel disease (VD) in patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains unclear.Between July 2011 and June 2015, 866 consecutive STEMI patients underwent emergent percutaneous coronary intervention, 507 of whom were enrolled and classified into three groups according to the initial angiograms: 1VD, 294 patients; 2VD, 110 patients; and 3VD/left main trunk disease (LMTD), 103 patients. Serum levels of PUFAs, including eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), and arachidonic acid, and other laboratory data during hospitalization were evaluated.The serum EPA level in the 3VD/LMTD group was significantly lower than that in the 1VD group (55.5 ± 22.1 versus 66.2 ± 28.7, P = 0.002) and was slightly lower than that in the 2VD group (55.5 ± 22.1 versus 65.2 ± 28.9, P = 0.0167). Multivariate adjustment analysis revealed that age ≥ 70 years (odds ratio, 1.72; 95% confidence interval, 1.03-2.89; P = 0.038) and a low serum EPA level (odds ratio, 0.98; 95% confidence interval, 0.99-1.00; P = 0.023) were independent risk factors for 3VD/LMTD, while a low serum DHA level was not.A low serum EPA level may be more strongly related than a low serum DHA level to the extent of VD in STEMI patients. Age ≥ 70 years and a low serum EPA level may be independent risk factors for 3VD/LMTD.

AIM: We investigated the efficacy and safety of using paclitaxel-coated balloon (PCB) to treat small vessel disease. METHODS AND RESULTS: In this multicenter, prospective, randomized controlled trial, one-hundred and thirty-five patients with native coronary lesions in small vessels were randomized into a PCB group and plain balloon angioplasty (POBA) group at a ratio of 2:1. There were no differences in target vessel failure (TVF) that was defined as cardiac death or target vessel-related myocardial infarction or target lesion revascularization (TLR), between the two groups (3.4 vs. 10.3%; P = 0.20), and TLR was slightly lower in the PCB group (2.3%) than that in the POBA group (10.3%) during 24 weeks follow-up. The late lumen loss (LLL) was significantly lower in the PCB group (0.01 ± 0.31 vs. 0.32 ± 0.34 mm; P < 0.01) and late lumen enlargement (LLE) was more frequently observed in the PCB group (48 vs. 15%; P < 0.01) by angiographic follow-up after 24 weeks. There were no cases of death, myocardial infarction, thrombosis and reocclusion in either group. CONCLUSIONS: This study was not able to demonstrate superiority of PCB compared with POBA.

BACKGROUND: Although several new techniques have been introduced for CTO such as the retrograde approach, the fundamental question of what type of guidewire is the most appropriate as a primary guidewire in the antegrade approach has not been answered. METHODS: The G-FORCE study was designed as a prospective multicenter randomized controlled trial to determine the efficient primary guidewire in antegrade approach for chronic total occlusion (CTO). The first guidewire was randomly assigned to a regular size distal tip group (0.014in. size) or tapered tip group (0.010in. or less). The primary endpoint was defined as successful lesion penetration by the first guidewire into distal true lumen. This study was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov with identifier NCT00987610. RESULTS: A total of 260 patients were enrolled, with an average age of 66±11years and 16% were female. The average J-CTO score was 1.8±1.1. The primary endpoint was achieved in 38% and 32% of patients using tapered and regular distal tip guidewires, respectively (P=0.80). The final PCI success rate was 81% vs. 85%, respectively (P=0.57). Easy CTO lesions with a J-CTO score=0 exhibited a primary endpoint significantly different between tapered and regular distal tip primary guidewires (79% vs. 40%; P=0.046). Guidewire distal coating or distal tip load did not relate with primary guidewire success rate. CONCLUSION: Tapered and regular distal tip guidewires are equivalent as a first choice for CTO. Tapered guidewires are superior for CTO lesions with a J-CTO score=0.

We herein report a case of intramural hematoma without ongoing myocardial ischemia that healed spontaneously with conservative treatment. A 37-year-old woman was admitted due to chest pain. Acute coronary syndrome was diagnosed by electrocardiography and echocardiography. Coronary angiography showed 90% stenosis in the distal portion of the left anterior descending coronary artery, where intravascular ultrasound showed a hematoma, but optical coherence tomography could not detect the entry point. Therefore, we identified the intramural hematoma as the etiology. Because the coronary flow was maintained and chest pain disappeared, we chose conservative treatment. Fifteen days after admission, coronary computed tomography showed an improvement in the intramural hematoma.

UNLABELLED: Little is known about the long-term outcomes after first-generation sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) implantation. We aimed to investigate the clinical outcomes up to 10 years after SES implantation. METHODS: The study population comprised 342 patients (504 lesions) who underwent SES implantation between January 2002 and December 2004. The median duration of follow-up was 3816 days (interquartile range [Q1-Q3], 3,705-3,883 days). RESULTS: The cumulative event rate of definite stent thrombosis was 3.9%. The cumulative rate of target lesion revascularization (TLR) at 1, 5, and 10 years was 8.7%, 18.8%, and 31.1%, respectively, and the annual rate of TLR was 3.1%. Clinically driven TLR occurred at relatively constant rate during 10 years (2.0% per year). In a multivariate analysis, higher body mass index, hemodialysis, in-stent restenosis (ISR) target lesion, and total stent length >30 mm were independent risk factors of TLR within 5 years. An independent risk factor of TLR beyond 5 years was ISR target lesion. CONCLUSIONS: Late TLR after SES implantation is a long-term hazard, lasting up to 10 years. The ISR target lesion is a risk factor of TLR during 10 years.

BACKGROUND: Stent fracture (SF) after drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation was reported to be associated with target lesion revascularization (TLR). We have noted abnormal late acquired stent axial deformation in lesions after DES implantation, especially in SF lesions, and defined it as stent recoil (SR). We evaluated the incidence, predictive factors, and clinical impact of SR in SF lesions. METHODS: Between 2003 and 2012, 5456 patients (11,712 lesions) underwent DES implantations and follow-up angiography within one year after the index procedure. SR was defined as an axial recoil deformation less than 80% of the stent diameter and SF was defined as the separation of stent segments or stent struts. SF and SR were confirmed by follow-up angiography. The primary endpoint was defined as clinically driven TLR. RESULTS: SF was observed in 494 lesions (4.2%) and SR in 138 of SF lesions (27.9%). According to multinomial logistic regression analyses, severe calcification and ostial lesion in the right coronary artery were stronger predictive factors of SF with SR lesions. The cumulative incidences of any and clinically driven TLR at 5years were both significantly higher in the SF with SR group than in the SF without SR group (51.7% versus 35.0%, P<0.001; 22.2% versus 12.8%, P=0.019; respectively). CONCLUSIONS: SR in SF lesions after DES implantation could be related to the lesion characteristics. SF with SR was highly associated with subsequent TLR compared with SF without SR.

OBJECTIVE: To assess hard major adverse clinical events (HMACE) after successful versus failed percutaneous coronary intervention for chronic total occlusion (PCI-CTO). BACKGROUND: There are limited data regarding long-term HMACE risks based on PCI-CTO success. METHODS: First-time PCI was performed in 438 consecutive patients with 473 target CTO lesions. Patients after procedural success (n=355; 378 CTO lesions) and failure (n=83; 95 CTO lesions) were followed for an average 40months (7-77months range). We compared HMACE (composite of cardiac death, non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI), and stroke) dependent on the success of PCI. RESULTS: The incidence of HMACE was low, with a total of 16 events, and did not differ {6% vs.3.1%, HR=0.47; CI [0.16-1.35; p=0.162} dependent on the success of PCI-CTO. There were less cardiac deaths {0.3% vs. 1.2%, RR=0.22; CI [0.01-3.50];p=0.283}, non fatal MI {1.1% vs.3.6%, RR=0.27; CI [0.06-1.22], p=0.089}, but more strokes {1.7% vs.1.2%, RR=1.32; CI [0.16-10.99], p=0.795} after successful PCI-CTO. CONCLUSIONS: The risks of HMACE after PCI-CTO over long-term follow-up were minimal, and do not depend on the procedure success. This unexpected finding somewhat challenge the aggressive interventional approach, and should be confirmed in the adequately powered randomized trial.

AIMS: We investigated the impact of the J-CTO score, a pre-procedural risk score for successful guidewire crossing within 30 minutes through chronic total occlusion (CTO) lesions, on procedural and midterm clinical outcomes in terms of target lesion revascularisation (TLR) after CTO recanalisation. METHODS AND RESULTS: The primary endpoint of this substudy was midterm TLR. The net midterm success rate was calculated by multiplying the lesion success rate by the TLR-free survival rate. The initial lesion success rates according to the J-CTO score categories of 0, 1, 2, and ≥3 were 97.0%, 92.1%, 86.5%, and 73.6%, respectively (p<0.001). The TLR rates at one year according to the J-CTO score categories of 0, 1, 2, and ≥3 were 5.3%, 11.1%, 16.7%, and 13.4%, respectively (p=0.082). The net midterm success rates according to the J-CTO score categories of 0, 1, 2, and ≥3 were 91.9%, 81.9%, 72.1%, and 63.7%, respectively (p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Patients with CTO lesions with lower J-CTO scores are expected to achieve a high procedural success rate and an increased TLR-free survival rate. Patients with high J-CTO scores still remain an issue.

AIMS: The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy between paclitaxel-coated balloon (PCB) and drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation for the treatment of DES restenosis in complex situations. METHODS AND RESULTS: Data of patients who received revascularisation for DES restenosis between 2004 and 2011 were collected. A total of 683 patients with 777 lesions were analysed in this study (306 lesions treated by PCB, 471 lesions by DES). The use of PCB or DES was at the discretion of the operator. Angiographic outcomes at six to eight months and clinical outcomes at 12-month follow-up were compared between groups. The primary outcome was binary restenosis. Cox regression analysis with propensity score adjustment suggested that there were no significant differences between the two groups with respect to binary restenosis, target lesion revascularisation (TLR), and major adverse cardiac events. As for the angiographic endpoints, subgroup analysis was performed for several parameters. There was a significant trend favouring PCB with respect to binary restenosis and TLR in non-focal type lesions and bifurcation lesions. CONCLUSIONS: Angiographic and clinical outcomes in the PCB group were similar to those in the repeat DES group. PCB seemed to offer more favourable results in non-focal type lesions and bifurcation lesions.

BACKGROUND: Predictors of worsening renal function (WRF: increase in serum creatinine ≥ 0.3 mg/dl from the value on admission) in patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) treated by low-dose carperitide (0.01-0.05 µg/kg/min) are unclear. METHODSâANDâRESULTS: We retrospectively investigated predictors of WRF within the first 24 h of low-dose carperitide therapy in 205 patients (mean age, 75.6 ± 12.1 years) hospitalized for ADHF and treated with low-dose carperitide between January 2006 and April 2014. WRF occurred in 14 patients (7%). A multivariate adjustment analysis showed that independent predictors of WRF within 24 h were hypotension (systolic blood pressure <90 mmHg) within 12 h (odds ratio, 8.7; 95% confidence interval, 2.38-35.88; P=0.0012) and serum creatinine on admission (odds ratio, 3.64; 95% confidence interval, 1.84-7.67; P=0.0003). In patients with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <60 ml/min/1.73 m(2), the rate of WRF occurrence was higher in those complicated by hypotension than in those without hypotension (22.6% [7/31 patients] vs. 4.4% [5/113 patients], P=0.0041). In contrast, in patients with eGFR ≥ 60 ml/min/1.73 m(2), hypotension did not influence the occurrence of WRF (0% [0/9 patients] vs. 3.9% [2/51 patients], P=NS). CONCLUSIONS: Hypotension within 12 h and renal dysfunction on admission are independent predictors of WRF within 24 h in patients with ADHF treated by low-dose carperitide. Hypotension may not cause WRF in patients with eGFR ≥ 60 ml/min/1.73 m(2).

AIMS: Theoretically, bioresorbable vascular scaffolds (BVSs) may provide superior long-term results compared with permanent metallic drug-eluting stents (DESs). However, whether BVSs are as safe and effective as metallic DESs prior to complete bioresorption is unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS: ABSORB Japan was a single-blind, multicentre, active-controlled, randomized trial designed to support regulatory approval of the Absorb BVS in Japan. Eligible patients with one or two de novo lesions in different epicardial vessels were randomized at 38 Japanese sites in a 2:1 ratio to Absorb BVS vs. cobalt-chromium everolimus-eluting stents (CoCr-EESs). The primary endpoint was target lesion failure [TLF: a composite of cardiac death, myocardial infarction attributable to target vessel, or ischaemia-driven target lesion revascularization (ID-TLR)] at 12 months, powered for non-inferiority. The major secondary endpoint was angiographic in-segment late lumen loss (LLL) at 13 months. A total of 400 patients were randomized to BVSs (266 patients and 275 lesions) or CoCr-EESs (134 patients and 137 lesions). TLF through 12 months was 4.2% with BVSs and 3.8% with CoCr-EESs [difference (upper one-sided 95% confidence limit) = 0.39% (3.95%); Pnon-inferiority < 0.0001]. Definite/probable stent/scaffold thrombosis at 12 months occurred in 1.5% of the patients with both devices (P = 1.0), and ID-TLR for restenosis was infrequent (1.1% with BVSs and 1.5% with CoCr-EESs, P = 1.0). With 96.0% angiographic follow-up, in-segment LLL at 13 months was 0.13 ± 0.30 mm with BVSs and 0.12 ± 0.32 mm with CoCr-EESs [difference (upper one-sided 95% confidence limit) = 0.01 (0.07); Pnon-inferiority < 0.0001). CONCLUSION: In the ABSORB Japan randomized trial, 12-month clinical and 13-month angiographic outcomes of BVSs were comparable to CoCr-EESs.

BACKGROUND: Stent fracture (SF) after sirolimus-eluting stent implantation is reported to be associated with target lesion revascularization (TLR) and stent thrombosis. We aimed to assess the clinical impact of SF at 8 years. METHODS AND RESULTS: Between 2002 and 2005, 972 patients (1795 lesions) underwent sirolimus-eluting stent implantation and follow-up angiography within 1 year after index procedure. SF, defined as the complete separation of stent segments or stent struts at follow-up angiography, was observed in 105 lesions (5.8%). The study sample comprised 954 patients (1630 lesions), excluding 147 lesions undergoing TLR and 18 patients (18 lesions) who died or in whom stent thrombosis developed within 1 year after sirolimus-eluting stent implantation. The median follow-up duration was 9.1 years (the first and third quarters, 8.7 and 9.4 years). The primary end point was defined as any TLR. The 8-year cumulative rates of adverse events were estimated by Kaplan-Meier methods with P values from log-rank tests. Between patients with and without SF, there were no significant differences in the cumulative rates of all-cause death (23.5% versus 27.6%, P=0.35) and cardiac death (4.7% versus 9.1%, P=0.14), whereas patients with SF had significantly higher cumulative rates in myocardial infarction (10.1% versus 3.3%, P=0.001), very late stent thrombosis (6.8% versus 0.7%, P<0.001), any TLR (38.1% versus 10.8%, P<0.001), and clinically driven TLR (26.2% versus 6.6%, P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: SF after sirolimus-eluting stent implantation was consistently associated with higher rates of adverse cardiac events during the 8-year follow-up.

BACKGROUND: There are currently inadequate data on whether "late restenosis" occurs after paclitaxel-coated balloon (PCB) angioplasty for in-stent restenosis (ISR) lesions. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of PCB angioplasty, we investigated serial clinical and angiographic outcomes after PCB angioplasty for ISR lesions. METHODS: Between September 2008 and December 2012, PCB angioplasty was performed in 468 patients with 550 ISR lesions (bare-metal stent restenosis [BMS-ISR]: 114 lesions, drug-eluting stent restenosis [DES-ISR]: 436 lesions). Two serial angiographic follow-ups were routinely planned for the patients (at 6 and 18 months after the procedure). RESULTS: Early follow-up (6 months) angiography was performed for 488 lesions (89%), and recurrent restenosis occurred in 13 lesions (13.0%) in the BMS-ISR group and in 82 lesions (21.1%) in the DES-ISR group. Target lesion revascularization was performed for 7 lesions (7.0%) in the BMS-ISR group and 54 lesions (13.9%) in the DES-ISR group. Late follow-up (18 months) angiography was performed for 377 (88%) of the remaining 427 lesions (excluding target lesion revascularization lesions), and late restenosis was found in 2 lesions (2.5%) in the BMS-ISR group and 50 lesions (16.8%) in the DES-ISR group. Delayed late lumen loss was significantly larger in the DES-ISR group. Previous stent size ≤2.5 mm, percentage diameter stenosis after the procedure, and in-stent occlusion lesion were independent predictors of early restenosis. DES-ISR, percentage diameter stenosis at early follow-up, and hemodialysis were independent predictors of late restenosis. CONCLUSIONS: Late restenosis occurs after PCB angioplasty for DES-ISR lesions.

BACKGROUND: The influence of antiplatelet therapy discontinuation on the incidence of stent thrombosis, especially very late stent thrombosis, after drug-eluting stent implantation has not been yet fully addressed. METHODS: Relationship between antiplatelet therapy discontinuation and stent thrombosis up to 5years was evaluated in 12,812 consecutive patients undergoing sirolimus-eluting stents (SES) implantation in the j-Cypher registry. Data on status of antiplatelet therapy during follow-up were collected prospectively. RESULTS: Median follow-up interval was 1699days (interquartile range, 1184-1928days). Incidences of definite stent thrombosis were 0.34% at 30days, 0.55% at 1year, and 1.6% at 5years. Dual antiplatelet therapy was maintained in 97.4%, 63%, and 43.9% of patients at 30days, 1year, and 5years, respectively. The rates of stent thrombosis in patients who discontinued both thienopyridine and aspirin were significantly higher in the time intervals of 31-365days, 2-3years and 3-4years, and tended to be higher in the time intervals of 1-2years and 4-5years than those in patients who continued both (31-365days: 1.26% versus 0.2%, P<0.001; 1-2years: 0.59% versus 0.15%, P=0.06; 2-3years: 1.35% versus 0.2%, P=0.004; 3-4years: 1.09% versus 0.25%, P=0.0496; 4-5years: 1.35% versus 0.43%, P=0.17). Patients who discontinued either thienopyridine or aspirin only did not have an excess of stent thrombosis in any time intervals. CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion, discontinuation of both thienopyridine and aspirin, but not discontinuation of thienopyridine or aspirin only, was associated with an increased incidence of late and very late stent thrombosis up to 5years after SES implantation.

Relation of antiplatelet therapy (APT) discontinuation with the risk of serious cardiovascular events has not been fully addressed yet. This study is aimed to evaluate the risk of ischemic event after APT discontinuation based on long-term APT status of large cohort. In the CREDO-Kyoto Registry Cohort-2 enrolling 15939 consecutive patients undergoing first coronary revascularization, 10470 patients underwent percutaneous coronary intervention either with bare-metal stents (BMS) only (N=5392) or sirolimus-eluting stents (SES) only (N=5078). Proportions of patients taking dual-APT were 67.3% versus 33.4% at 1-year, and 48.7% versus 24.3% at 5-year in the SES and BMS strata, respectively. We evaluated daily APT status (dual-, single- and no-APT) and linked the adverse events to the APT status just 1-day before the events. No-APT as compared with dual- or single-APT was associated with significantly higher risk for stent thrombosis (ST) beyond 1-month after SES implantation (cumulative incidence rates beyond 1-month: 1.23 versus 0.15/0.29, P<0.001/P<0.001), while higher risk of no-APT for ST was evident only until 6-month after BMS implantation (incidence rates between 1- and 6-month: 8.43 versus 0.71/1.20, P<0.001/P<0.001, and cumulative incidence rates beyond 6-month: 0.31 versus 0.11/0.08, P=0.16/P=0.08). No-APT as compared with dual- or single-APT was also associated with significantly higher risk for spontaneous myocardial infarction (MI) and stroke regardless of the types of stents implanted. Single-APT as compared with dual-APT was not associated with higher risk for serious adverse events, except for the marginally higher risk for ST in the SES stratum. In conclusion, discontinuation of both aspirin and thienopyridines was associated with increased risk for serious cardiovascular events including ST, spontaneous MI and stroke beyond 1-month after coronary stenting.

We investigated the impact of diabetes mellitus on long-term outcomes of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in the drug-eluting stent era versus coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in a real-world population with advanced coronary disease. We identified 3,982 patients with 3-vessel and/or left main disease of 15,939 patients with first coronary revascularization enrolled in the Coronary Revascularization Demonstrating Outcome Study in Kyoto PCI/CABG Registry Cohort-2 (patients without diabetes: n = 1,984 [PCI: n = 1,123 and CABG: n = 861], and patients with diabetes: n = 1,998 [PCI: n = 1,065 and CABG: n = 933]). Cumulative 5-year incidence of all-cause death after PCI was significantly higher than after CABG both in patients without and with diabetes (19.8% vs 16.2%, p = 0.01, and 22.9% vs 19.0%, p = 0.046, respectively). After adjusting confounders, the excess mortality risk of PCI relative to CABG was no longer significant (hazard ratio [HR] 1.16; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.88 to 1.54; p = 0.29) in patients without diabetes, whereas it remained significant (HR 1.31; 95% CI 1.01 to 1.70; p = 0.04) in patients with diabetes. The excess adjusted risks of PCI relative to CABG for cardiac death, myocardial infarction (MI), and any coronary revascularization were significant in both patients without (HR 1.59, 95% CI 1.01 to 2.51, p = 0.047; HR 2.16, 95% CI 1.20 to 3.87, p = 0.01; and HR 3.30, 95% CI 2.55 to 4.25, p <0.001, respectively) and with diabetes (HR 1.45, 95% CI 1.00 to 2.51, p = 0.047; HR 2.31, 95% CI 1.31 to 4.08, p = 0.004; and HR 3.70, 95% CI 2.91 to 4.69, p <0.001, respectively). There was no interaction between diabetic status and the effect of PCI relative to CABG for all-cause death, cardiac death, MI, and any revascularization. In conclusion, in both patients without and with diabetes with 3-vessel and/or left main disease, CABG compared with PCI was associated with better 5-year outcomes in terms of cardiac death, MI, and any coronary revascularization. There was no difference in the direction and magnitude of treatment effect of CABG relative to PCI regardless of diabetic status.

AIMS: Morphological assessment of neointimal tissue using optical coherence tomography (OCT) is important for clarifying the pathophysiology of in-stent restenosis (ISR) lesions. The aim of this study was to determine the impact of OCT findings on recurrence of ISR after various types of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) including plain old balloon angioplasty (POBA), paclitaxel-coated balloon (PCB) dilatation, and drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation. METHODS AND RESULTS: Between June 2008 and August 2013, we performed PCI for 428 ISR lesions in 379 patients using POBA (78 lesions, POBA group), PCB dilatation (202 lesions, PCB group), and DES implantation (148 lesions, DES group). Morphological assessment of neointimal tissue at the minimum lumen area site to determine restenotic tissue structure (homogeneous, heterogeneous, or layered type) using OCT was performed. We examined the association between tissue structure and midterm results including ISR and target lesion revascularization (TLR) rates. The patients were 308 men and 71 women with a mean age of 68.9 ± 9.4 years. The mean follow-up period was 211 ± 40 days. ISR and TLR rates of lesions with a homogeneous structure were significantly higher in the POBA group than in the PCB group (ISR: 54.8 vs. 19.1%, P < 0.001; TLR: 38.7 vs. 10.6%, P < 0.001) and DES group (ISR: 54.8 vs. 19.6%, P = 0.002; TLR: 38.7 vs. 10.7%, P = 0.005), whereas there were no differences in ISR and TLR rates between the three groups in lesions with a heterogeneous structure. CONCLUSION: Morphological assessment of ISR tissue using OCT might suggest favourable types of PCI for ISR lesions.

AIM: To conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis on retrograde wiring in chronic total occlusions (CTOs) with focus on its safety and feasibility. METHODS AND RESULTS: We searched publications from 1990 to December 2013 in PubMed, Ovid, EMBASE, and the Cochrane database inserting a number of terms relating to the collateral circulation of the heart in CTOs. A total of 18 case series (n range17-462) with a total of 2280 CTO revascularization attempts fulfilled criteria for a study of retrograde wiring of collateral channels in CTOs. There were no randomized studies comparing a primary antegrade with a primary retrograde approach. Procedural CTO revascularization rates ranged from 67% to 90.6% with a large proportion having previously failed an "antegrade" approach. The septal perforator collaterals and epicardial channels were used in 73.2% (n = 1670) and 21.7% (n = 495) of cases. Although collateral/coronary perforation was not infrequent (n = 90, 5%), serious acute complications were uncommon; in the combined population 18 cases of cardiac tamponade (0.8%) and 3 deaths (0.1%). Septal perforating wiring (79.3%) was significantly more likely to be successful compared to epicardial coronary artery wiring (72.5%) when chosen by the operator as a route of retrograde access to the CTO body (relative risk 1.11 [95% confidence interval: 1.02-1.20; P = .013]). CONCLUSION: Successful retrograde wiring of collateral channels in selected patients undertaken by "CTO dedicated" operators can significantly enhance the chances of revascularization of complex CTOs with a low risk of acute serious complications. Septal perforator channels are significantly more likely to be successfully retrogradely wired compared to epicardial vessels when either is selected, by reference to their anatomical suitability by the operator, as a route of access.

Rotational atherectomy is an indispensable modality for percutaneous coronary intervention of severely calcified lesions. An entrapped rotablator burr is a rare but life-threatening complication because retrieval is difficult. Although emergent surgical removal is a reliable option for this complication, it is invasive. There are various methods to retrieve an entrapped burr by bailout endovascular approaches. We present two cases of successful rescue of stuck rotablator burr entrapment using a Kiwami straight catheter (4 Fr, Heartrail II, Terumo, Tokyo, Japan).
