## Abstract ## Background: Concerns have been raised regarding late mortality, particularly from late stent thrombosis, from drug‐eluting stents (DES). Randomized clinical trials have shown that DES decrease restenosis but do not decrease mortality compared with bare metal stents (BMS). These stud
## Abstract Background: A selective policy of drug‐eluting stent (DES) implantation in ST‐elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients at high risk of restenosis may maximize the benefit from restenosis reduction and minimize risk from late stent thrombosis (LaST). Objectives: We sought to pros
