  2. Clinical outcome and Predictive factors of Coronary aneurysm after Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

    Coronary artery aneurysms (CAAs) defined as angiographic luminal dilatation (50% larger than the adjacent reference vessel) at the site of stent implantation are rare and the reported incidence varies from 0.3% to 6%(Aoki et al., 2008). A new term, peri-stent contrast staining (PSS) was defined as …

    In this thesis, factors affecting outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), the most common interventional procedure performed, were examined. To constrain procedural costs, selective criteria for drug-eluting stents (DES), which reduce restenosis, were developed in 2003 at Liverpool …
