Author: Hyeon-Cheol Gwon Cardiac and Vascular Center Samsung Medical Center, Sungkyunkwan University School of Medicine

 

OBJECTIVE

  • The aim of this study was to evaluate the prognosis of peri-procedural myocardial infarction (PMI) in rather homogenous clinical and lesion subset
    • No myocardial infarction
    • Coronary bifurcation lesion treated with drug-eluting stent

CONCLUSION

  • Peri-procedural MI may not be a significant independent prognostic factor of cardiac death and MACE after coronary bifurcation stenting using contemporary intervention strategies.
  • The larger studies are required to confirm this findings.
