Impact of residual thrombus burden on ventricular deformation after acute myocardial infarction: A sub-analysis from an intravascular optical coherence tomography study

Background: Coronary residual thrombus before stenting in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) has been linked to microvascular injury but its impact on ventricular deformation and cardiac dysfunction in longer term remains unclear. Methods: This was a post-hoc sub-analysis from an opt...
