The Black Back Yard of D.E.S [D.ES Pitfalls) Ehud Grenadier M.D H.M.C, Assuta , Rambam Med. Ctrs. Israel
Deliverable Effective Safe Drug Eluting Stent
In the first year after coronary stents insertions, clinical failures are driven mainly by procedural complications and restenosis • However: The subsequent relative contributions of restenosis and the disease progression to late failures states are less clear
5-years clinical outcomes from second generation coronary stent trial 46.4% Composite 37.9% No restenosis Event rate Restenosis 20.3% years Cutlip et al, Circulation 2004
Questions that need to be asked • Are D.E.S effective in prevention of restenosis? • Is there an increased survival by using D.E.S compare to B.M.S ? • Is an acute , subacute or late stent thrombosis events still a continuous risk ? • What are the additional risks of D.E.S therapy ? • What is the appropriate treatment and its duration that should be applied for risks reductions? • Is the risk of side-effect or complications of the applied therapy worth it ?
Or to make a long story short Are we going in the right direction?
One of the most dreadful complication of P.C.I is : Acute stent thrombosis, it has claimed to be of more relevancy in the long term to : D.E.S treatment.
It is frequently presented clinically as :ACUTE M.I or DEATH
Acute stent thrombosis : When it occurs ’Days from the procedure’ is frequently a procedural related complication.Not a D.E.S related.
But : Sub Acute or late acute stent thrombosis is probably D.E.S related and is due to ..

Premature Discontinuation of Antiplatelet Therapy • Non compliance • Due to procedures: Surgery, dental, biopsy • ASA or Clopidogrel [ plavix ] resistance • Are the most important predictors of stent thrombosis • 29 pts at 9 months F.U (1.3%) • 13/29 (45%) died. Fatality rate - 45% Common reasons Iakovov et al JAMA 2005
Late Stent Thrombosis On the other hand… With The long need of antiplatelets therapy • There is a risk of bleeding from continuation of ASA and or Plavix during surgical procedures. It must be taken in consideration and weighed against the risk of fatal late stent thrombosis. • The requirement of extended (> 1 year?) dual antiplatelets regimen remains uncertain until more data are available

Inflammation • In D.E.S there is a further delay arterial wall healing process and increasedinflammation • Compared to B.E.S , D.E.S induce greater: • Fibrin deposition • Medial cell loss • WBC infiltration • Less Late neointimal hyperplasia

Delayed Endothelialization • D.M.S have a decreased endothelialization process compared to D.E.S • Lack of cells coverage in areas of stents overlaps
