Stent implantation in very small coronary arteries: the Tsunami SV International Registry.
The aim of this multicenter registry was to examine the in-hospital and long-term clinical outcomes of patients who underwent Tsunami SV stent implantation for the treatment of lesions involving coronary arteries with a reference diameter of <2.5 mm. The angiographic success rate was 97.5%. No in-hospital or 30-day major adverse cardiac events occurred. During the 6-month follow-up, there was 1 cardiac death (1%), and 5 subjects (4.8%) underwent repeat target lesion revascularization.
