Mechanical complications of everolimus-eluting stents associated with adverse events: an intravascular ultrasound study
Inaba S, Mintz GS, Yun KH et al.
KEYWORDS
intravascular ultrasound; everolimus-eluting stent; stent fracture
AIMS - Mechanical complications contribute to bare metal and first-generation drug-eluting stent (DES) failure. However, the importance of the mechanical complications of second-generation DES remains unclear. We report mechanical complications associated with everolimus-eluting stent (EES) failures.
