Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the feasibility, safety and efficacy of ACS MULTI LINK PENTA (PENTA) stent in patients with coronary artery disease.Methods From March to June 2002, thirty PENTA stents were implanted in 28 patients with 30 de novo lesions. For each patient the demographic, interventional and mean 3 month follow up informations were recorded. Results Almost two thirds of patients suffered from hypertension(61%) and half experienced unstable angina (53%). Most target lesions(67%) had unfavorable morphological characteristics (type B2 or C). No stent deployment failure occurred as well as acute or subacute stent thromobis.The major branches compromised after stenting were only in 2 patients. During floow up,no MACE occurred, except reoccurrence of chest pain in 2 patients (7%). Conclusions The PENTA stent appears to be safe and effective in treating coronary artery disease.
