In total, 18 patients (renal stent group) who underwent renal stent implantation in ectatic/aneurysmatic coronary arteries requiring percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and 45 patients who underwent large-sized bare metal coronary stent (BMCS) implantation (BMCS group) at our centre between 2015 and 2020 were included in the study. Control coronary angiography (CAG) was performed during the follow-up of these patients, and angiography-guided quantitative measurements were performed during PCI. The primary endpoints were myocardial infarction and cardiovascular mortality, and the secondary endpoints were restenosis and all-cause mortality.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of renal stents implanted in ectatic/aneurysmatic coronary arteries.
