Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the prognosis and influencing factors of unprotected left main coronary artery lesion intervention with drug-eluting stents.Methods Forty-five patients with unprotected left main coronary artery disease were treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).According to whether the lesions involving the distal left main bifurcation,the patients were divided into two 2 groups:nonbifurcation lesion group (26 cases) with opening or body disease,bifurcation lesion group (19 cases) with involving the distal left main or anterior descending artery,circumflex openings.Fifteen patients were guided by intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) during PCI,and 13 patients were reviewed by coronary angiography at (9.5 ±6.3) months after PCI.Results All the 45 patients were successful.There were 42 patients successfully finished the follow-up study for the average of 8-48 (19.9 ± 10.2) months,non-bifurcation lesion group was 24 cases,bifurcation lesion group was 18 cases.The incidence of recurrent angina pectoris during the follow-up period in bifurcation lesion group was significantly higher than that in non-bifurcation lesion group [6/18 vs.12.5％ (3/24)],there was statistical difference (P ＜ 0.05),but there was no statistical difference in the incidence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) between 2 groups [3/18 vs.12.5％ (3/24),P ＞ 0.05].Single-variable analysis results showed that MACE in IVUS guided during PCI was less than that in non-IVUS guided during PCI [1/15 vs.18.5％(5/27)],there was statistical difference (P ＜0.05).In 13 patients who reviewed by coronary angiography,4 patients were found in-stents restenosis,all in bifurcation lesion group,the rate of restenosis in double stents was 3/6,in simple stents was 1/4.Conclusions PCI with drug-eluting stents is safe and feasible for the treatment of selective left main coronary artery lesion,it could bring the better short and long-term outcomes.IVUS guided PCI could significantly reduce MACE.
