Abstract

This report concerns the pathologic findings observed at autopsy in a 10-year-old heterotopic heart transplant under cyclosporine treatment. The allograft showed a diffuse multivessel atherosclerotic disease whereas in the recipient heart coronary arteries and aorta were focally affected by atherosclerosis. The proliferating cell nuclear antigen had significantly increased expression in the allograft vessels in comparison with the recipient.

Abstract

We studied 100 patients who had coronary implantation of Palmaz-Schatz stents in our institution from November 1989 until March 1991. A total of 126 standard and 6 short stents were implanted. The patients' mean age was 58 +/- 5 years, and 97 were males. The indications were lesions with high risk of restenosis (29 patients), restenosis (27 patients), suboptimal result of angioplasty (24 patients), dissection (16 patients), and recanalized chronic total occlusion (6 patients). In 17 patients a brachial cut-down approach was used. Stents were correctly placed in 98 patients. Stent related complications occurred in 9 patients: major ischemic complications in 7 patients (acute myocardial infarction in 2 patients, emergency bypass surgery in 3 patients and emergency angioplasty in 2 patients); in 3 of these patients there was a subacute closure of the stent and in 2 patients there were delivery problems. Vascular complications at the site of arterial puncture occurred in 3 patients (some patients had more than one complication). A learning curve was observed. There was a decrease in the complication rate with the higher number of patients treated: 28% for the first 50 patients and 6% for the last 50 patients. Clinical follow-up was available in all patients. Of the 92 patients eligible for follow-up (7 +/- 2 months), 69 patients were asymptomatic and 23 had recurrence of angina: 19 patients for stent restenosis and 4 patients for coronary artery disease progression. Follow-up angiogram was done in 79/92 (86%) patients: 21 had restenosis (27%).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
