Improved vascular healing after the successful treatment of very late sirolimus-eluting stent thrombosis with a bare metal stent implantation – A serial optical coherence tomography study
We present the case of a patient with non-ST-elevated myocardial infarction due to very late stent thrombosis 2 years after a sirolimus-eluting stent implantation (SES). Optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging identified vessel wall destruction of the whole stented coronary segment with multiple...
