Description
Summary:At least 2-year follow-up was available for all but 10 patients (12 lesions). [...]the present study reports 532 patients (98% follow-up rate) with 671 lesions; 80 patients (83 lesions) had LSM, and 452 patients (588 lesions) did not. [...]1) MACE and stent thrombosis were not more frequent in LSM patients compared with non-LSM patients; and 2) LSM after DES implantation was not a predictor of MACE during a mean follow-up of 31 months after the 6-month IVUS in a cohort of this size.
