RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Reduction of restenosis and reinterventions was reported with drug-eluting stents (Cypher). This study compares results of multivessel Cypher stenting with bilateral internal thoracic artery (BITA) grafting. METHODS: From January 2002 to June 2004, 725 consecutive patients underwent multivessel myocardial revascularization, 95 by 2 or more Cypher stents and 630 by BITA. After matching for age, sex, and extent of coronary artery disease, 2 groups (87 patients each) were used to compare the 2 revascularization modalities. RESULTS: The 2 groups were similar; however, left main and the use of an intra-aortic balloon pump were more prevalent in the BITA group. The number of coronary vessels treated per patient was higher in the BITA group (2.71 versus 2.24 for BITA and Cypher, respectively; P = .001). Mean follow-up was 12 months. Thirty-day mortality was 0 in both groups. There were no late deaths in the BITA group and 2 (2.3%) in the Cypher group (P value was not significant). Angina returned in 29.9% of the Cypher group and 12.6% of the BITA group (P = .005). Multivariable Cox analysis revealed percutaneous intervention (PCI) (Cypher group) to be the only independent predictor of angina recurrence (Odds Ratio 2.62, 95% Confidence Interval 1.11-6.17). There were 10 reinterventions (PCI) in the Cypher group compared to 5 in the BITA group. One-year reintervention-free survival (Kaplan-Meier) of the BITA group was 96% compared to 88% in the Cypher group (P = .015). CONCLUSIONS: Midterm clinical outcome of surgically treated patients is still better. However, the reintervention gap between surgery and percutaneous interventions was reduced by treating 2 or more coronary vessels with Cypher stents.

RESUMEN

STUDY OBJECTIVES: The left anterior descending artery (LADA), particularly when the proximal segment of the vessel is involved, is a challenging area for percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs); therefore, coronary artery bypass grafting is often considered and sometimes performed even in patients with single-vessel disease involving the LADA. This study compares mid-term results of LADA revascularization with a drug-eluting stent (DES), with off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) in patients with single-vessel or multivessel coronary artery disease (CAD). DESIGN: Matched-groups, retrospective cohort comparison between the DES and OPCAB. PATIENTS: From June 2002 to December 2003, 354 patients underwent myocardial revascularization of the LADA by OPCAB, and 168 by DES. After matching for age, sex, and extent of CAD, two groups (116 patients each) were used to compare the two revascularization modalities. The groups were similar; however, an ejection fraction of <30%, old myocardial infarction, and use of an intraaortic balloon pump were more prevalent in the OPCAB group. RESULTS: The average number of coronary vessels treated per patient in the two groups was similar (OPCAB, 1.97; DES, 1.6; p = 0.581). The 30-day mortality rate was 0.9% in the OPCAB group and 0% in the DES group (p = 0.329). The mean duration of follow-up was 12 months. There was one late death in each group. Angina returned in 31% of patients in the DES group and in 11.2% of the patients in the OPCAB group (p = 0.001). There were 12 reinterventions in the DES group compared to three reinterventions in the surgical group (p = 0.020). The only independent predictor (Cox proportional hazards regression model) of the return of angina (risk ratio [RR], 3.36; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.57 to 7.14) and reintervention (RR, 3.9; 95% CI, 1.34 to 11.24) was assignment to the DES group. CONCLUSIONS: The mid-term clinical outcome of OPCAB in patients with CAD, including multivessel disease, was better than that for PCIs with only one DES used in patients with similar extents of CAD.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: This study compared early results of left anterior descending artery (LAD) stenting using drug-eluting stents (Cypher) with off-pump bilateral internal thoracic arterial (BITA) grafting. METHODS: From June 2002 to June 2003, 200 consecutive patients underwent myocardial revascularization of the LAD territory, 100 by Cypher and 100 by BITA. The 2 groups were similar; however, left main disease and triple-vessel disease (20% and 75% versus 2% and 28%), age >70 (36% versus 17%) and intraaortic balloon pump (7% versus 0%) were more prevalent in the BITA group, and prior percutaneous coronary angiogplasty to the LAD was more prevalent in the Cypher group (28% versus 16%). RESULTS: The number of coronary vessels treated per patient in the BITA group was higher (2.7 versus 1.45, P < .01). Thirty-day mortality was 1% in the BITA group and 0% in the Cypher group. Mean follow-up was 12 months. There was 1 late death in each group. Angina returned in 32% of the Cypher group and in 1% of the BITA group. There were 9 reinterventions in the Cypher group: 7 coronary angioplasties (including 2 to the LAD) and 2 surgical interventions. There was neither recurrent angina nor reintervention in the surgical group. CONCLUSIONS: Despite a higher risk profile of patients treated with BITA, their clinical outcome is better. A longer and more complete angiographic follow-up is required to determine the role of drug-eluting stents in LAD revascularization.
