title: Impact of peri-stent remodeling on in-stent neointimal proliferation in acute myocardial infarction.
abstract: Fifty stented lesions in 50 patients with acute myocardial infarction were studied by intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) before and just after stent implantation and at follow-up. Volumetric IVUS analyses revealed that greater peristent positive remodeling after stent implantation was associated with less neointimal proliferation and greater luminal gain at follow-up.
