ABSTRACT
Objective: Evaluate clinical and angiographic results after six months follow up of patients treated with a stent for coronary lesions in the bifurcation, at “20 Noviembre National Medical Center”.
Material and Methods: A retrospective, descriptive and observational study after six months follow up of patients, that were taken to the homodynamic room, for coronary intervention to treat the coronary lesions in the bifurcation with the placement of a stent, during the period of may 1th to November 30 of 2002.
Results: A total of 28 patients were included, and in 27 there was a follow up for six months. 85.2% were men and 14.8% women, the range of age was 39 to 78 years. 18.9% had documented previous myocardial infarction. The most common clinical indication for intervention was Stables Angina. 29 lesions were treated; were the most common approach for the main vessel was the anterior descending artery and for the side branch the diagonal arteries. Type I lesion in the Bifurcation, was most common lesion treated. Reference diameter of the vessel in the lesion was 3.12±0.32mm of main artery and 2.41±0.43mm of side branch. In all of the lesions the coronary stent was placed in the main artery. Angiographic and clinical success was in 26 of the treated lesions and nonsuccess; because of side branch total occlusion in 3 (two with non-Q wave infarction). During follow-up, clinical data of restenosis occurred in 7.40% of patients and angiographic restenosis was present in 10.34%. Major adverse cardiac events occurred in 18.5%; non of the patients had myocardial infarction or dead. Two of the three lesions that the lateral branch was occluded, had spontaneous recanalization.
Discussion and Conclusions: Our results of treating coronary lesions in the bifurcation with the placement of a stent, has no significant difference with those reported in the literature, with a tendency of lower percentage of immediate success rate, but less restenosis percentage and major adverse cardiac events in long term.
