Objective: This study aims to compare the efficacy of sirolimus-eluting stents (SES), paclitaxel-eluting stents (PES), zotarolimus-eluting stents (ZES), and everolimus eluting stents (EES) via sequential angiographic follow-up and to reveal the development of restenosis over time. Methods: Patients were randomized to receive SES, PES, ZES, or EES, and follow-up angiography was performed at 6, 12 and 24months after percutaneous coronary intervention. Results: The baseline clinical characteristics of the patients and the coronary lesions are shown in (Table 1). In all groups, mean minimal lumen diameter decreased slightly during the 2-year period after the procedure (Figure 1). Compared with the SES group, the PES and the ZES groups showed greater late loss (LL) within 1 year. However, the SES group showed significantly greater LL compared with the other drug-eluting stents (DES) between 1 and 2 years (Figure 2). Conclusion: Serial angiographic analysis revealed differences in the rate of restenosis development over time for various DES. As DES are comprised of many components (metallic platform, alloy, drug and polymer), the progression of LL can be complex and affected by different factors.
