title: [Immediate and Long-term Results of the First in Russia of IntrocoronaryMetal Stent in the Coronary Artery].
abstract: The authors present immediate and long term results of the first in Russia implantation in coronary artery of Palmaz-Shatz metal stent. Indications for stenting were urgent after complicated dissection as a result of balloon dilation of discrete bifurcational stenosis of anterior interventricular artery (IVA). Immediate angiographic and clinical result was good. At control angiography after 13 years their was no restenosis in stented IVA. However novel narrowing was found in left main coronary artery (LMCA) in which drug eluting stent was implanted. Coronary angiography carried out after 7.5 years after stenting of LMCA and in 20 years after stent implantation in IVA revealed good patency of both stented segments without signs of restenosis. This case report demonstrates possibility of long term preservation of angiographic and clinical effect of staged endovascular treatment of coronary atherosclerosis.
