ABSTRACT


OBJECTIVESThe purpose of this study was to assess the prevalence of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-derived thin-cap fibroatheroma (IDTCFA) and its relationship with the clinical presentation using spectral analysis of IVUS radiofrequency data (IVUS-Virtual Histology [IVUS-VH]).


BACKGROUNDThin-cap fibroatheroma lesions are the most prevalent substrate of plaque rupture.

METHODSIn 55 patients, a non-culprit, non-obstructive (<50%) lesion was investigated with IVUS-VH. We classified IDTCFA lesions as focal, necrotic core-rich (> or =10% of the cross-sectional area) plaques being in contact with the lumen; IDTCFA definition required a percent atheroma volume (PAV) > or =40%.

RESULTSAcute coronary syndrome (ACS) (n = 23) patients presented a significantly higher prevalence of IDTCFA than stable (n = 32) patients (3.0 [interquartile range (IQR) 0.0 to 5.0] vs. 1.0 [IQR 0.0 to 2.8], p = 0.018). No relation was found between patient's characteristics such as gender (p = 0.917), diabetes (p = 0.217), smoking (p = 0.904), hypercholesterolemia (p = 0.663), hypertension (p = 0.251), or family history of coronary heart disease (p = 0.136) and the presence of IDTCFA. A clear clustering pattern was seen along the coronaries, with 35 (35.4%), 31 (31.3%), 19 (19.2%), and 14 (14.1%) IDTCFAs in the first 10 mm, 11 to 20 mm, 21 to 30 mm, and > or =31 mm segments, respectively, p = 0.008. Finally, we compared the severity (mean PAV 56.9 +/- 7.4 vs. 54.8 +/- 6.0, p = 0.343) and the composition (mean percent necrotic core 19.7 +/- 4.1 vs. 18.1 +/- 3.0, p = 0.205) of IDTCFAs between stable and ACS patients, and no significant differences were found.

CONCLUSIONSIn this in vivo study, IVUS-VH identified IDTCFA as a more prevalent finding in ACS than in stable angina patients.
