Experience with the AVE Micro stent in native coronary arteries.
Experience with implantation of 62 AVE Micro stents is described. Stents were quickly and successfully deployed in 62 of 63 attempts (98.4%), in tortuous coronary vessels, through proximally deployed stents, and under conditions of hemodynamic instability. It is therefore a very attractive choice to treat difficult anatomy during urgent situations.
