Abstract Background The clinical implication of state-of-art PCI at long term follow-up in patients with three vessel disease is undetermined. Purpose The purpose of the study was to investigate whether the favourable outcomes of state-of-the-art PCI in the SYNTAX-II trial, demonstrated up to 2 years, are maintained at 3-year follow-up. Methods The SYNTAX-II study was a multicentre, single arm study that investigated the impact of a state-of-art PCI strategy on clinical outcomes in patients with de novo three vessel coronary artery disease, without left main disease. State-of-art PCI includes: heart team decision-making utilizing the SYNTAX score II, hybrid iFR-FFR decision-making strategy, intravascular ultrasound guided stent implantation, contemporary chronic total occlusion revascularization techniques and guideline-directed medical therapy. The primary endpoint is major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE – a composite of all-cause death, any stroke, myocardial infarction, or revascularization) at 3 years. Clinical outcomes in SYNTAX-II were compared to the predefined PCI (SYNTAX-I PCI) and coronary artery bypass graft (SYNTAX-I CABG) cohorts from the landmark SYNTAX Trial (SYNTAX-I), selected on the basis of equipoise for long-term (4-year) mortality utilising the SYNTAX Score II. Results Between February 2014 and November 2015, 454 patients out of 708 screened patients were enrolled in SYNTAX-II. In SYNTAX-I, 643 (58.8%) patients with 3VD without left main disease had an equipoise recommendation for CABG or PCI based on the SYNTAX Score II and were used as the comparator. At 2 years, MACCE rate in SYNTAX-II was significantly lower compared to SYNTAX-I PCI (13.2% vs. 21.9%, p=0.001). Furthermore, similar two-year outcomes for MACCE were evident between SYNTAX II-PCI and SYNTAX-I CABG (13.2 vs. 15.1%, p=0.42). Three-year results will be presented at ESC2019. Conclusions Three-year results of his study may offer an attractive option of revascularization strategy in predefined patients with de novo 3VD (SYNTAX Score II inclusion) even if the patients have moderate to severe anatomical complexity (anatomic SYNTAX score >22).

Abstract Background The evaluation of coronary disease by SYNTAX score I (SSI) is used to grade coronary complexity. Following SSI, two other scores were developed: SYNTAX score II (SSII) and residual SYNTAX score (rSS). Nevertheless, there is still a lack of evidence about the prognostic significance of these scores among patients undergoing CABG. Purpose Our aim was to evaluate the relation of the SSI, SSII and rSS score with outcomes in a long-term follow-up after elective CABG. Methods This is a single center, registry-based study. Baseline SSI was calculated from patients undergoing CABG by interventional cardiologists. SSI results were considered as usual: <23, 23–32 and >32. SSII and rSRR were then calculated and categorized in tertiles: <21.4, 21.4–29.4 and >29.4 for SSII and 0, 1–5 and >5 for rSS. Primary outcome was a composite of overall death, myocardial infarction, additional revascularization, or stroke (MACCE). Results Data were obtained from 559 patients. Median follow-up was 6 years (IQR: 4.9–9.8) and 170 events were documented. The Kaplan-Meier curves (figure 1) showed significant differences of MACCE in higher SSI, SSII and rSS (p=0.039, 0.033, <0.001 respectively). After multivariate adjustment, rSS, ejection fraction (EF) and age were found to be independent predictors of MACCE (p<0.001, 0.034 and 0.006, respectively). Figure 1 Conclusion In this sample SSI, II and residual were associated with the occurrence of events. However, just the rSS remained an independent predictor of MACCE together with age and EF.
