Patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and diabetes mellitus (DM) with intracoronary in - stent restenosis (one year observation)

摘要

In - stent restenosis (IRS) is defined as the absolute narrowing (at least 50% in the control angiography) of vessel lumen which previously underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stent deployment. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is the most important factor which promotes development of restenosis. The aim of the study was to assess patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and diabetes mellitus who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention with stent implantation. Patients with ACS and DM are characterized by the presence of many modifiable and nonmodifiable risk factors for cardiovascular diseases and various metabolic disorders which promote not only progression of atherosclerosis, but also in - stent restenosis (IRS).
