Abstract
In-stent restenosis (ISR), especially for neoatherosclerosis, is still a major problem of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) even in the drug-eluting stent (DES) era. The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of neoatherosclerosis on prognosis after PCI for ISR. Between March 2009 and December 2017, 313 ISR lesions in patients undergoing an OCT-guided PCI in five hospitals were retrospectively enrolled. Neoatherosclerosis was defined as a lipid neointima or calcified neointima. We examined the association between neoatherosclerosis and the clinically driven target lesion revascularisation (CD-TLR) rates. In 313 ISR lesions, 64 lesions (20.4%) had bare metal stents and 241 lesions (77.0%) had drug-eluting stents (DES). Among them, 47.0% of lesions (147 lesions) had neoatherosclerosis. A multivariate logistic regression analysis demonstrated that eGFR (odds ratio [OR] 0.986, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.974-0.998; p=0.023), the time from PCI to the ISR (OR 1.13, 95% CI: 1.06-1.22; p<0.001) and DES-ISR (OR 2.48, 95% CI: 1.18-5.43; p=0.019) were independent predictors for neoatherosclerosis. A multivariate regression analysis demonstrated that neoatherosclerosis was an independent predictor of CD-TLR. In this multicentre ISR registry, OCT imaging demonstrated that eGFR, the time from PCI to the ISR and DES-ISR were independent predictors for neoatherosclerosis and that neoatherosclerosis in ISR lesions had a worse impact on the CD-TLR rate.
