Background Data regarding the clinical outcomes of covered stents (CSs) used to seal coronary artery perforations (CAPs) in the all-comer population are scarce. The aim of the CRACK Registry was to evaluate the procedural, 30-days and 1-year outcomes after CAP treated by CS implantation. Methods This multicenter all-comer registry included data of consecutive patients with CAP treated by CS implantation. The primary endpoint was the composite of major adverse cardiac events (MACEs), defined as cardiac death, target lesion revascularization (TLR), and myocardial infarction (MI). Results The registry included 119 patients (mean age: 68.9 ± 9.7 years, 55.5% men). Acute coronary syndrome, including: unstable angina 21 (17.6%), NSTEMI 26 (21.8%), and STEMI 26 (21.8%), was the presenting diagnosis in 61.3%, and chronic coronary syndromes in 38.7% of patients. The most common lesion type, according to ACC/AHA classification, was type C lesion in 47 (39.5%) of cases. A total of 52 patients (43.7%) had type 3 Ellis classification, 28 patients (23.5%) had type 2 followed by 39 patients (32.8%) with type 1 perforation. Complex PCI was performed in 73 (61.3%) of patients. Periprocedural death occurred in eight patients (6.7%), of which two patients had emergency cardiac surgery. Those patients were excluded from the one-year analysis. Successful sealing of the perforation was achieved in 99 (83.2%) patients. During the follow-up, 26 (26.2%) patients experienced MACE [7 (7.1%) cardiac deaths, 13 (13.1%) TLR, 11 (11.0%) MIs]. Stent thrombosis (ST) occurred in 6 (6.1%) patients [4(4.0%) acute ST, 1(1.0%) subacute ST and 1(1.0%) late ST]. Conclusions The use of covered stents is an effective treatment of CAP. The procedural and 1-year outcomes of CAP treated by CS implantation showed that such patients should remain under follow-up due to relatively high risk of MACE.

Data on the clinical outcomes comparing synthetic fluorocarbon polymer polytetrafluoroethylene- (PTFE, GraftMaster) and polyurethane- (Papyrus) covered stents (CSs) to seal coronary artery perforations (CAPs) are limited. We aimed to evaluate 30-day and 1-year clinical outcomes after PCI complicated by CAP and treated with CS. We assessed 106 consecutive patients with successful CAP sealing (122 CSs): GraftMaster (51 patients, 57 CSs) or Papyrus CS (55 patients, 65 CSs). The primary endpoint was the occurrence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE), defined as the composite of cardiac death, target lesion revascularisation (TLR), and myocardial infarction (MI). The mean age of subjects was 69 ± 9.6 years (53.8% males). No significant differences were identified between the GraftMaster and Papyrus groups at the 30-day follow-up for MACE, cardiac death, MI and stent thrombosis (ST), while significantly lower rate of TLR and TVR (p = 0.02) were confirmed in the Papyrus group. At one year, differences remained similar between stents for MACE, a trend towards a lower rate of TLR (p = 0.07), MI (p = 0.08), and ST (p = 0.08), and higher for cardiac death (p = 0.07) was observed in the Papyrus group. This real-life registry of CAP illustrated that the use of Papyrus CS is associated with lower rates of TLR and TVR at 30-day follow-up in comparison to the GraftMaster CSs and no significant differences between both assessed CS at one year of follow-up.

Coronary Artery Perforation

Objectives. The present study aimed to investigate the short- and long-term clinical outcomes of self-made polyurethane-covered stents (PU-CS) in patients for the management of coronary artery perforation (CAP) during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Background. Coronary artery perforation is reckoned as a serious complication in PCI and associated with considerable morbidity and mortality. Covered stents have been used for treating the life-threatening CAP during PCI. But in some catheterization laboratories, no commercial CS is immediately available when there is an urgent need for CS to rescue the coronary rupture site. Methods. We retrospectively identified 24 patients who underwent 31 self-made PU-CS implantations due to CAP in Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University, from June 2015 to January 2020. Results. The total procedural success rate of CS to seal the perforation was 79.2%. Nine patients (37.5%) developed cardiac tamponade, of which 8 patients (33.3%) underwent pericardiocentesis and 4 patients (16.7%) underwent cardiac surgeries. Except for 4 cardiac death cases (16.7%), none of myocardial infarction (MI), target lesion revascularization (TLR), and stent thrombosis (ST) was reported during hospital stay. Data from 22 patients (91.7%) were available at 610.4 ± 420.9 days of follow-up. Major adverse cardiac events (MACE) occurred in 6 patients (27.3%), including 5 cases of cardiac death and one TLR case. Conclusions. Self-made PU-CS demonstrates high rates of successful delivery and sealing of severe CAP during PCI. Although the in-hospital mortality remains high after PU-CS implantation, the long-term follow-up shows favorable clinical outcomes, indicating the feasibility of PU-CS in treating CAP.

Abstract Background Up to 24% of acute coronary syndrome patients present with ST-elevation but show complete resolution of ST-elevation and symptoms before revascularization. The current guidelines do not clearly state whether these transient ST-elevation myocardial infarction (TSTEMI) patients should be treated with a ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI)-like or a non-STEMI-like invasive approach. Purpose The aim of the present study is to determine the effect of an immediate versus a delayed invasive strategy on infarct size measured by 4-month cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) and clinical outcome up to one year. Methods In this multicenter trial, 142 TSTEMI patients were randomized 1:1 to either an immediate or a delayed intervention. CMR was performed at four days and at 4-month follow-up to assess infarct size and myocardial function. Clinical follow-up was performed at four months and one year. Results Both in the immediate (0.4 h) and the delayed invasive group (22.7 h) CMR-derived infarct size at four months was very small and left ventricular function was good. In addition, major adverse cardiac events and all-cause mortality at one year were low and not different between both groups (table 1). CMR and clinical outcomes up to one year Outcome Immediate invasive group (n=70) Delayed invasive group (n=72) p-value Myocardial infarct size (% of LV), median (IQR) 0.4 (0.0–3.5) 0.4 (0.0–2.5) 0.79 LVEF (%), mean ± SD 59.9±5.4 59.3±6.5 0.63 LVEF recovery (%), mean ± SD 2.2±5.4 1.7±5.3 0.66 MVO present, No. (%) 0 (0.0) 1 (1.9) 0.50 MACE (death, reinfarction, target lesion revascularization), No. (%) 3 (4.4) 4 (5.7) 1.00 Death from any cause, No. (%) 0 (0.0) 3 (4.3) 0.24 Reinfarction, No. (%) 2 (3.0) 1 (1.4) 0.62 Target lesion revascularization, No. (%) 2 (3.0) 1 (1.4) 0.62 Definite stent thrombosis, No. (%) 1 (1.5) 1 (1.4) 1.00 Abbreviations: IQR, interquartile range; LV, left ventricle; LVEF, left ventricle ejection fraction; MACE, major adverse cardiac events; MVO, microvascular obstruction; NA, not applicable; SD, standard deviation. Conclusions We demonstrated that patients with TSTEMI have limited infarct size and preserved left ventricular function and that an immediate or delayed approach has no effect on clinical outcome up to one year. Therefore, patients with TSTEMI can be treated with both an immediate or a delayed invasive strategy with similar outcome. These findings extend our current knowledge about the optimal timing of coronary intervention in patients with TSTEMI and complement the guidelines. Acknowledgement/Funding AstraZeneca, Biotronik

Background: Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) has emerged as an important cause of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and sudden cardiac death. Physical or emotional stressors are the most commonly reported triggers for SCAD. Unemployment has been identified as a source of emotional stress and linked to poor mental and physical health. Objective: To examine the association between employment status and in-hospital and follow-up adverse cardiovascular events in patients with SCAD. Methods: We conducted a retrospective, multi-center, observational study of patients undergoing coronary angiography for ACS between January 2011 and December 2017. The total number of patients enrolled was 198,000. Patients were diagnosed with SCAD based on angiographic and intravascular imaging modalities whenever available. There were 83 patients identified with SCAD from 30 medical centers in 4 Arab gulf countries. In-hospital (myocardial infarction, percutaneous intervention, ventricular tachycardia/ventricular fibrillation, cardiogenic shock, death, internal cardioverter/defibrillator placement, dissection extension) and follow-up (myocardial infarction, de novo SCAD, death, spontaneous superior mesenteric artery dissection) cardiac events were compared among those who were employed and those who were not. Results: The median age of patients in the study was 44 (37- 55) years. There were 42 (50.6%) female patients, and 41 (49.4) male patients. Of the cohort, 50 (60%) of the patients were employed and the remaining 33 (40%) were unemployed. 66% of all men were employed and 76% of all women were unemployed. After adjusting for gender unemployment was associated with worse in-hospital and follow-up cardiac events (adjusted OR 7.1, [1.3, 37.9]), p = 0.021. Conclusion: Adverse cardiovascular events were significantly worse for patients with SCAD who were unemployed.

Coronary Endothelial Dysfunction

Introduction: Although coronary endothelial dysfunction is thought to affect coronary atherothrombogenic processes, there has been little practical evidence for the relationship between clinical evolution of fatal or non-fatal acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and coronary endothelial dysfunction. Hypothesis: We assessed hypothesis that coronary endothelial dysfunction has clinical impacts on development of ACS and fatal cardiovascular events. Methods: Coronary endothelial dysfunction was practically graded by the flow-mediated endothelium-dependent reactive changes in coronary artery diameter (CFMD) to infusion of adenosine triphosphate (ATP ; 50μg) into the normal left coronary artery using quantitative coronary arteriography in 150 patients with stable coronary artery disease. The enrolled patients were categorized into tertile groups according to the values of CFMD, and we prospectively followed-up major adverse clinical cardiac events including ACS and cardiovascular death. Results: For a mean follow-up period of 132 months (range; 120 to 144) with complete follow-up, the patients in the lower third with severe coronary endothelial dysfunction (Group-L) more frequently developed ACS than those in the middle third with mild coronary endothelial dysfunction (Group-M) plus those in the higher third without coronary endothelial dysfunction (Group-H) [Group-L versus Group-M plus Group-H: 15(30%) versus 5(10%) plus 0(0%), p<0.001, by Kaplan-Meier analysis]. Majority of the patients who resulted in cardiovascular death belonged to Group-L, [6(12%) versus 1(2%) plus 0(0%), p=0.014]. Cox hazard proportional model analyses indicated that severe coronary endothelial dysfunction was the strong predictor for future ACS (hazard ratio=7.53, 95%confidential interval; 1.78-12.25, p<0.001) and future cardiovascular death (hazard ratio=13.50, 95%confidential interval; 1.55-25.25, p=0.005). Conclusions: This is the novel and longest follow-up investigation that demonstrates coronary endothelial dysfunction plays important roles on development of ACS and fatal cardiovascular events and therefore the strategies based on status of coronary endothelial dysfunction are required to prevent major adverse ischemic cardiac events.

Background: The aim of this study is to report the short-term results of catheter-directed foam sclerotherapy (CDFS) in the treatment of axial saphenous vein incompetence. Patients and methods: Data of all patients undergoing CDFS for symptomatic primary incompetence of the great or small saphenous vein were prospectively collected. Treatment results in terms of occlusion rate and patients’ grade of satisfaction were analysed. All successfully treated patients underwent clinical and duplex follow-up examinations one year postoperatively. Results: Between September 2006 and September 2010, 357 limbs (337 patients) were treated with CDFS at our institution. Based on the CEAP classification, 64 were allocated to clinical class C3 , 128 to class C4, 102 to class C5 and 63 to class C6. Of the 188 patients who completed the one year follow up examination, 67 % had a complete and 14 % a near complete obliteration of the treated vessel. An ulcer-healing rate of 54 % was detected. 92 % of the patients were satisfied with the results of treatment. We registered six cases of thrombophlebitis and two cases of venous thromboembolism, all requiring treatment. Conclusions: The short-term results of CDFS in patients with axial vein incompetence are acceptable in terms of occlusion and complications rates.
