Safety and efficacy of self-apposing Stentys drug-eluting stent in left main coronary artery PCI: Multicentre LM-STENTYS registry.
Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions 2018 October 12
BACKGROUND: There is a paucity of data on left main (LM) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) therapy with dedicated DES platforms. The LM-STENTYS is a multicenter registry aimed at evaluating clinical outcome after PCI of LM performed with a self-apposing Stentys DES implantation.
METHODS: The registry consists of 175 consecutive patients treated with Stentys DES implanted to LM. The primary endpoint was the composite of major adverse cardiac and cerebral events (MACCE) defined as cardiac death, myocardial infarction (MI), target lesion revascularization (TLR), and stroke assessed after 1 year. The secondary endpoint was stent thrombosis (ST) at 1 year.
RESULTS: The median age was 69 years (IQR, 62-78 years). Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) was the presenting diagnosis in 117 (66.9%) patients [74 (63.2%) unstable angina, 31 (26.5%) NSTEMI, 12 (10.3%) STEMI] and stable angina (SA) was present in 58 (33.1%) patients. The median SYNTAX score was 23.0 (IQR, 18.7-32.2) in the SA group and 25.0 (IQR, 20.0-30.7) in the ACS group. During 1-year follow-up in the SA group two (3.4%) MACCE occurred, both of them were cardiac deaths. In ACS patients there were 19 (16.2%) MACCE [9 (7.7%) cardiac deaths, 11 (9.4%) MIs, 11(9.4%) TLR, 1(0.9%) stroke]. Altogether, three (1.7%) cases of acute ST were noted, all of them in ACS subset.
CONCLUSION: LM PCI using self-apposing Stentys DES showed favorable clinical outcomes at 1-year in patients with SA. Events of ST in the ACS group warrant further research.
