          Abstract

          Objective: Our main objective was to compare the in-hospital and long-term outcomes of saphenous vein graft stenting and native coronary artery stenting in patients with previous coronary artery bypass grafting. Methods: We studied 127 patients who had prior coronary artery bypass; they were divided in two groups, according to the kind of percutaneous coronary intervention performed. The first group included 49 patients with saphenous vein graft stenting and the second group included 78 patients who underwent native coronary artery stenting. Results: There was no significant difference in age, incidence of diabetes, smoking, arterial hypertension, dyslipidemia, left ventricular ejection fraction or in the New York Heart Association functional class between both groups. The incidence of no reflow phenomenon was higher in group 1 (10.2% vs. 1.2%, p = 0.0001). The cumulative incidence of major adverse cardiac events was different between groups at 1 month (10.2% vs. 2.5%, p = 0.041). There was a lower MACE (major adverse cardiovascular events) free survival at 36 months in the saphenous vein graft stenting group (65.0% vs. 89.1%, p = 0.024). Conclusions: Major in-hospital complications occurred more frequently in the saphenous vein graft stented group. MACE-free survival at 3 years was higher in the native coronary artery stent patients.

          Propósito del estudio: el objetivo primario del estudio fue valorar la tasa de eventos cardiacos mayores después de cirugía de revascularización coronaria por angioplastia con stent en el injerto de vena safena, comparados con los de angioplastia con stent en la arteria coronaria nativa, tanto en el periodo de hospitalización como a largo plazo. Métodos: estudiamos a 127 pacientes, 49 con stent en injerto de vena safena (grupo 1) y a 78 con stent en arterias coronarias innatas (grupo 2). Resultados: no hubo diferencias significativas en la edad, ni en frecuencia de diabetes, tabaquismo, hipertensión arterial, dyslipidemia, fracción de expulsión del ventrículo izquierdo o clase funcional entre los grupos. La incidencia del fenómeno de no reflujo persistente fue mayor en el grupo 1 (10.2% contra 1.2%, p = 0.0001) y la suma de eventos cardiacos sólo fue distinta durante el primer mes (10.2% contra 2.5%, p = 0.041). La supervivencia sin eventos cardiacos a 36 meses fue menor en los pacientes del grupo 1 (65.0% contra 89.1%, p = 0.024). Conclusiones: La suma de eventos cardiacos mayores fue mayor en el grupo 1 y la supervivencia sin dichos eventos a 3 años fue superior en los pacientes con endoprótesis en arteria coronaria natural.

          Aortocoronary Saphenous Vein Graft Disease: Pathogenesis, Predisposition, and Prevention

          Aortocoronary saphenous vein graft disease, with its increasing clinical sequelae, presents an important and unresolved dilemma in cardiological practice. During the 1st month after bypass surgery, vein graft attrition results from thrombotic occlusion, while later the dominant process is atherosclerotic obstruction occurring on a foundation of neointimal hyperplasia. Although the risk factors predisposing to vein graft atherosclerosis are broadly similar to those recognized for native coronary disease, the pathogenic effects of these risk factors are amplified by inherent deficiencies of the vein as a conduit when transposed into the coronary arterial circulation. A multifaceted strategy aimed at prevention of vein graft disease is emerging, elements of which include: continued improvements in surgical technique; more effective antiplatelet drugs; increasingly intensive risk factor modification, in particular early and aggressive lipid-lowering drug therapy; and a number of evolving therapies, such as gene transfer and nitric oxide donor administration, which target vein graft disease at an early and fundamental level. At present, a key measure is to circumvent the problem of vein graft disease by preferential selection of arterial conduits, in particular the internal mammary arteries, for coronary bypass surgery whenever possible.

              Randomized trial of a distal embolic protection device during percutaneous intervention of saphenous vein aorto-coronary bypass grafts.

              Stents provide effective treatment for stenotic saphenous venous aorto-coronary bypass grafts, but their placement carries a 20% incidence of procedure-related complications, which potentially are related to the distal embolization of atherosclerotic debris. We report the first multicenter randomized trial to evaluate use of a distal embolic protection device during stenting of such lesions. Of 801 eligible patients, 406 were randomly assigned to stent placement over the shaft of the distal protection device, and 395 were assigned to stent placement over a conventional 0.014-inch angioplasty guidewire (control group). The primary end point-a composite of death, myocardial infarction, emergency bypass, or target lesion revascularization by 30 days-was observed in 65 patients (16.5%) assigned to the control group and 39 patients (9.6%) assigned to the embolic protection device (P=0.004). This 42% relative reduction in major adverse cardiac events was driven by myocardial infarction (8.6% versus 14.7%, P=0.008) and "no-reflow" phenomenon (3% versus 9%, P=0.02). Clinical benefit was seen even when platelet glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor blockers were administered (61% of patients), with composite end points occurring in 10.7% of protection device patients versus 19.4% of control patients (P=0.008). Use of this distal protection device during stenting of stenotic venous grafts was associated with a highly significant reduction in major adverse events compared with stenting over a conventional angioplasty guidewire. This demonstrates the importance of distal embolization in causing major adverse cardiac events and the value of embolic protection devices in preventing such complications.
