[Comparative analysis of efficacy of endovascular interventions in native vascular bed and grafts in patients with ischemic heart disease after coronary artery bypass surgery].

ABSTRACT

AIM: Investigation of efficacy of endovascular interventions in native vascular bed and grafts, elucidation of factors, affecting immediate and remote prognosis after endovascular treatment. MATERIAL AND METHODS Coronary stenting was carried out in 212 patients who had previously undergone coronary bypass surgery. Stents were implanted into native vessels and grafts in 116 (native vessels group) and 96 (grafts group) patients, respectively. Frequency of angina recurrence and development of complications were assessed during hospitalization and after 1 year. Coronary angiography was repeated after 1 year in 47 and 36 patients in native vessels and grafts groups, respectively. Multifactorial analysis of predictors of complications and angina recurrence was performed with the use of logistic regression. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: In grafts group signs of distal embolism were observed in 9 patients (9.4%), shunt thrombosis occurred in 2 of these patients. Risk factors of embolism in grafts group were complicated lesions (type C) and length of stenosis >20 mm. There was 1 non-Q wave myocardial infarction after stenting of native vascular bed (0.8%). Angina recurrence was observed after 1 year in 9 (7.8%) and 26 (27.1%), myocardial infarction developed during 1 year in 2 (1.7%) and 3 (3.1%) patients of native vessels and grafts groups, respectively. Risk factors of recurrence of clinic of ischemic heart disease (IHD) after stenting of grafts were time interval between stenting and bypass surgery >5 years and the use of stents without drug coating. More frequent recurrence of clinic of IHD in patients of grafts group was a consequence of higher level of restenosis in stented segments and more frequent progression of atherosclerosis in previously unaffected segments.
