Resultados inmediatos y a largo plazo del implante de un nuevo stent coronario de platino (stent Atlas) en pacientes con enfermedad arterial coronaria

Abstract

We evaluated the technical and clinical results of implantation of the Atlas stent, the hospital stay, and the short and long-term clinical and angiographic outcome. The study included 169 patients (60.1 10.8 year-old), 60.3% of which had acute coronary syndromes and complex lesions. Immediate success was achieved in 98% of cases. The clinical follow-up in 85.7% of the patients at 14.3 6.8 months, revealed that 89% remained free of adverse events and most (94.4%) were functional class I of the CCS. Angiographic follow-up at 8.4 4.1 months of 40.9% of the cases revealed restenosis in 27.9%. There were 2 cases of subacute thrombosis. The application of the Atlas stent in patients with a diverse clinical spectrum demonstrated good immediate and long term results, with a rate of restenosis similar to that of other stents available on the market.
