[Thrombosis of stents with an antiproliferative coating. Review of the literature].
The authors analysed the findings concerning thromboses of sirolimus- and paclitaxel-eluting stents over the time period from 2004 to 2007, having singled out the following causes of a stent's thrombosis: 1 - an anatomical cause (bifurcation stenosis, a prolonged atherosclerotic plaque, and in-stent restenosis; 2 - the stent's failure to fit snugly to the arterial wall; 3 - dissection of coronary arteries during stenting; 4 - cocaine dependence; 5 - resistance to aspirin and clopidogrel therapy; 6 - discontinuation of anti-platelet therapy.
