Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of coroflex (BRAUN, Germany) intracoronary stent. Methods To retrospectively analyze the immediate angiographic and clinical follow-up outcomes of 81 patients (pts) receiving coroflex intracoronary stenting. Results 88 coroflex intracoronary stents were implanted in 81 pts. According to ACC/AHA classification, 38 lesions were type A-B 1, 50 lesions were type B 2-C. 52 lesions were de novo, 22 were suboptimal results after PTCA and 14 lesions were bailout for dissections. Stent deployment was successful in 82/88 (93.2%). High-pressure (16-18 atm) balloon was used for stent deployment in 3 lesions with severe calcification. Dissection was occurred at distal of stent in 2 lesions but no inducing flow reduction. Angiography showed TIMI 2 grade after intracoronary stenting in 1 diffused lesion. There were no adverse events occurred during hospital stay. Clinical follow-up of in 75 pts were conducted for 7.5?3.0 (3-13) months, there were no cardiac death or myocardial infarction reported. Complain of angina (CCS class Ⅰ) occurred in 17 pts (22.7%). Repeat angiography was performed in 7 pts, there were 2 in-stent restenosis with successful revascularization. Conclusion Coroflex intracoronary stenting appears to be safe and effective in the treatment of coronary lesions with favorable outcomes.
