Treatment for in-stent restenosis requiring rotational atherectomy.
Journal of Interventional Cardiology 2018 December
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to evaluate the outcomes of patients with in-stent restenosis (ISR) who underwent rotablation (RA) followed by balloon angioplasty (BA), drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation, or drug-coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty.
BACKGROUND: Interventional treatment of ISR is occasionally challenging. Despite the availability of various percutaneous treatments, the optimal solution remains unclear.
METHODS AND RESULTS: A total of 200 patients with ISR who underwent RA were retrospectively identified from our institutional database. Clinical outcomes at 12 months and independent predictors of target lesion revascularization (TLR) were assessed. Of patients, 90, 55, and 55 underwent BA, DES implantation, and DCB angioplasty, respectively. The incidence of all-cause death, cardiac death, and hospitalization due to heart failure was low in all groups. Moreover, no definite stent thrombosis was observed in the three groups. The TLR rate of BA, DES implantation, and DCB angioplasty following RA for ISR were 40.7%, 35.0%, and 27.3%, respectively. The adjusted outcomes for TLR using the inverse probability of treatment weighting method based on propensity scores indicated that DCB angioplasty following RA was superior to BA after RA. Intraprocedural complications, which could be successfully managed with interventional treatment, were identified in only three cases.
CONCLUSIONS: TLR at 12 months is dismal. RA is not effective for ISR requiring RA. In unfavorable settings, DCB angioplasty following RA is the most effective treatment option in patients with ISR requiring debulking strategy.
