ObjectiveTo evaluate the immediate and 1-year outcomes of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with domestically made drug-eluting stent (DES) in patients with previous coronary bypass graft surgery (post-CABG) in order to determine the relationship between related factors and major adverse cardiovascular and cerebral events (MACCE) after PCI. Methods From September 2008 to October 2009, 83 consecutive post-CABG patients had implantation of 176 domestically made DES for 126 coronary lesions. Each patient was followed up at least for 1 year after the procedure done for the evaluation of the efficacy and safety of DES implanted in post-CABG patients. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the relationship between major factors and MACCE.Results The success rate of operation procedure was 97. 5%. MACCE occurred in 10 patients including death in 1 patient, stroke in 1 patient,myocardial infarction in 1 patient, and those were treated with repeated coronary revascularization in 8patients and target lesion revascularization (TLR) in 1 patient. ConclusionsImmediate and medium-term results showed the safety and efficacy of revascularization with domestically made DES in post-CABG patients. Complete revascularization was an independent predictor of MACCE.

AIM To investigate the relationship between the prevention of probucol against restenosis and functional vascular remodeling after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty(PTA) in rabbits. METHODS New Zealand rabbit thoracic aorta atherosclerosis was induced by 3 5 F balloon catheter injury following a 4 week feeding of high cholesterol diet, and percutaneous transluminal angioplasty(PTA) was performed by using 3 5 F ballon catheter. Probucol(1 g?d -1 ) or vitamin E(400 mg?d -1 ) was administrated one week before PTA. Two weeks after PTA, lumen area,neointima area(NEA),medial area(MA) and NEA/MA were analyzed by computerimage system.The relaxation response of restenotic arteries to acetylcholine and the contractive response to norepinephrine, potassium chloride and serotonin of thoracic aorta rings were measured by bioassay. Nitric oxide of serum was measured by means of biochemical assay.RESULTS After two weeks of PTA, probucol increased lumen area and decreased neointima area significantly. The relaxation response of restenotic arteries to acetylcholine was significantly lower than that of normal arteries〔relaxation percent to acetylcholine (1 ?mol?L -1 ):(18 4?4 0)% vs (63 5?6 4)%, P
