We investigated a new stent, characterized by four wider cells in its center, which can be expanded up to 3.5 mm and which are meant to be placed over the ostium of a major side-branch. Forty-seven consecutive patients with lesions involvi
## Abstract Objective: To evaluate whether an everolimusโeluting stent (EES) with thinner stent struts and polymer results in less periprocedural myonecrosis and adverse outcomes. Background: Higher periprocedural myocardial infarction (MI) rates have been reported with the TAXUSยฎ EXPRESS^2^ paclit
The outcome after PTCA and coronary stenting of nonacute total coronary occlusions in the diabetic population is unknown. The main objective of the present report was to compare the angiographic and 1-year clinical outcomes in the diabetic and nondiabetic patients who were enrolled in the Total Occl
