  • Characterization of late incomplete stent apposition: a comparison among bare-metal stents, intracoronary radiation and sirolimus-eluting stents.

    Miyazawa A, Tsujino I, Ako J, Shimada Y, Courtney BK, Sakurai R, Nakamura M, Okura H, Waseda K, Honda Y, Fitzgerald PJ. J Invasive Cardiol. 2007; 19 (12): 515-8

    Late incomplete stent apposition (LISA) develops following implantation of conventional bare-metal stents (BMS) or drug-eluting stents, or after adjunctive intracoronary radiation (IR). However, no study has systematically compared the morphology of LISA seen with various treatment modalities.
