Case report of a very late dual coronary stent thrombosis in a patient with coronavirus disease 2019.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is associated with hypercoagulability and a high rate of thrombosis. Few cases of coronary stent thrombosis associated with COVID-19 have been reported.

Case summary

In this report, we describe the case of a 65-year-old man with a history of coronary artery disease (CAD) who was admitted following an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest related to an ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction revealing a very late dual coronary stent thrombosis of the left anterior descending and posterior descending arteries. Ten days prior to admission, he was diagnosed with COVID-19 pneumonia and treated with dexamethasone, which led to rapid clinical improvement. After resuscitation, coronary angiography revealed an acute thrombotic occlusion in the two previous drug-eluting stents (implanted in 2010 and 2018), with a high thrombus burden. He was successfully treated by percutaneous coronary intervention. The patient did not present any further complications during his hospital stay and was transferred to a cardiac rehabilitation centre.

Discussion

Dual stent thrombosis is an exceptional event highlighting the high procoagulant state promoted by coronavirus 19. This case suggests that strengthening of antithrombotic therapy in CAD patients presenting with COVID-19 should be discussed.

A case report of Kounis syndrome presenting with a rash, very late stent thrombosis and coronary evaginations.

Project description:BackgroundVery late stent thrombosis (ST) is a concern in the era of drug-eluting stents (DESs), and ST is associated with peri-DES coronary artery aneurysmal lesions or coronary evaginations. An increasing number of cases of concurrent systemic allergic reaction and ST have been reported as Kounis syndrome (KS) in the literature. The number of patients with very late ST caused by KS is small, and further investigation of the potential pathophysiology is required.Case summaryWe report a case of KS that manifested as systemic urticaria followed by very late ST 14 years after placement of two sirolimus-eluting stents (SESs). Three months after the event of ST, coronary evaginations at the stented segments were detected on intravascular optical coherence tomography.DiscussionCoronary evaginations are associated with local hypersensitivity, stent malapposition, uncovered strut, and flow disturbance that may predispose to ST. Systemic allergic reactions are known to promote platelet adhesion and aggregation. This case of KS suggests a pathophysiology in which the synergic effects between the coronary evaginations and a systemic allergic reaction may contribute to very late ST. For patients with Type 3 KS, performing follow-up intracoronary imaging tests may be important to confirm potential coronary evaginations, especially in patients with SESs.

Optical coherence tomographic insights of very late stent thrombosis of a second-generation drug-eluting stent: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundVery-very late stent thrombosis (VVLST) occurring more than 5 years after implantation of drug-eluting stent (DES) is extremely rare, being restricted to few case reports. Mainly described with first-generation stents, this life-threatening complication has not been described with later-generation stents. We describe the first case of VVLST occurring 3309 days (>9 years) after implantation of second-generation DES.Case summaryA 62-year-old man presented with the acute coronary syndrome. He has a history of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) to the right coronary artery using the three second-generation DES more than 9 years ago. Coronary angiogram revealed in-stent restenosis (ISR) with doubtful angiographic thrombus. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) confirmed the diagnosis of stent thrombosis (STh) localized to the stent overlap zone with underlying ISR. Patient underwent OCT-guided PCI with DES implantation and was discharged on dual antiplatelet therapy including ticagrelor. He is doing well on follow-up at 6 months.DiscussionStent thrombosis can occur in second-generation stents nearly a decade after implant. Stent overlap segment is more prone to neo-atheroma formation and vulnerable plaque leading to STh. In addition to confirming the diagnosis, OCT provides exciting insights into the underlying mechanism. This has implications for long-term antiplatelet therapy in patients implanted with multiple stents.

A case of very late stent thrombosis on the protruded struts at the left main coronary bifurcation.

Project description:A previous autopsy study has revealed that malapposed or protruded struts in the coronary bifurcation were a risk factor for very late stent thrombosis (VLST); however, a live clinical case has not yet been reported due to difficulty in observation at the VLST site. In this case, a 56-year-old male patient underwent a zotarolimus-eluting stent implantation in the proximal left anterior descending artery for acute myocardial infarction 3 years previously and had been treated with dual antiplatelet therapy. The patient experienced chest pain and suddenly collapsed due to acute coronary syndrome caused by a huge thrombus in the left main coronary bifurcation. After insertion of the intra-aortic balloon pump, kissing balloon inflation improved coronary flow and hemodynamics. Two weeks later, a 3-dimensional optical frequency domain imaging (3-D OFDI) revealed uncovered protruded struts on the ostium of the left circumflex artery (LCX). We removed the protruded struts using a double lumen catheter, for which the second wire was advanced to more distal cell along with the first wire located in the same LCX branch. 3-D OFDI clearly demonstrated that uncovered protruded struts at the LCX ostium were the cause of VLST and navigated optimal wiring with a double lumen catheter. Learning objective: Existence of protruded struts at the coronary bifurcated branch ostium is a risk factor for very late stent thrombosis. Three-dimensional optical frequency domain imaging clearly demonstrates the protruded strut configuration at the side branch of ostium and facilitates optimal guide wire re-crossing for kissing balloon inflation. Usage of double lumen catheter increases the possibility of optimal side branch wiring.

A scoring system to predict the occurrence of very late stent thrombosis following percutaneous coronary intervention for acute coronary syndrome.

Project description:We aimed to derive and validate an effective risk score to identify high-risk patients of very late stent thrombosis (VLST), following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Stepwise multivariable Cox regression was used to build the risk model using data from 5,185 consecutive ACS patients treated with PCI (derivation cohort) and 2,058 patients from the external validation cohort. Eight variables were independently associated with the development of VLST: history of diabetes mellitus, previous PCI, acute myocardial infarction as admitting diagnosis, estimated glomerular filtration rate <90 ml/min/1.73 m2, three-vessel disease, number of stents per lesion, sirolimus-eluting stent, and no post-dilation. Based on the derived score, patients were classified into low- (≤7), intermediate- (8-9), and high- (≥10) risk categories. Observed VLST rates were 0.5%, 2.2%, and 8.7% and 0.45%, 2.3%, and 9.3% across the 3 risk categories in the derivation and validation cohorts, respectively. High discrimination (c-statistic = 0.80 and 0.82 in the derivation and validation cohorts, respectively) and excellent calibration were observed in both cohorts. VLST risk score, a readily useable and efficient tool to identify high-risk patients of VLST after PCI for ACS, may aid in risk-stratification and pre-emptive decision-making.

"The Unpredictable ABSORB" - Very Late Stent Thrombosis of Bioresorbable Vascular Scaffold.

Project description:Bioresorbable vascular scaffolds represent the next revolution in stent technology. They serve the dual purpose of antiproliferative drug delivery to vascular lumen like a drug-eluting stents (DES) as well as phased strut resorption over time leading to virtual elimination of stent thrombosis. The ABSORB GT-1 stent was the prototype bioresrbable vascular scaffold with maximum clinical experience and initial promising results. However, reports of stent thrombosis emerged with ABSORB too. Although the use of intracoronary imaging and proper implantation technique has the potential to reduce stent thrombosis rates, the device has been withdrawn from the market for now. We report a case of late stent thrombosis with ABSORB which was managed with DES-supported intracoronary imaging.

Venous thrombosis and arteriosclerosis obliterans of lower extremities in a very severe patient with 2019 novel coronavirus disease: a case report.

Project description:The outbreak of 2019 novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) began since early December 2019, and has been declared as a public health emergency by the World Health Organization. Due to the hypercoagulable state, blood stasis and endothelial injury, severe patients with COVID-19 are at high risk for thrombosis. We report a case of very severe COVID-19 complicated with venous thrombosis and arteriosclerosis obliterans of lower extremities. Risk stratification for deep vein thrombosis and peripheral arterial disease are of vital importance for the prognosis of COVID-19.

Clinical outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention for early versus late and very late stent thrombosis: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Project description:Whether the clinical outcomes of stent thrombosis (ST) are different when stratified by time of occurrence remains unclear. The objective of this study was to compare the short- and long-term clinical outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for early stent thrombosis (EST) versus late stent thrombosis (LST) and very late stent thrombosis (VLST). We enrolled eligible studies searched from the main electronic databases (EMBASE, PubMed, Cochrane). The primary endpoints were in-hospital, 30-day, 1-year and long-term mortality. The secondary endpoints included recurrent stent thrombosis (RST) and target vessel/lesion revascularization (TVR/TLR) during hospitalization, at 30 days, at 1 year and at long-term follow-up. A total of 23 studies with 17,592 patients were included. Compared with mortality rates of the late and very late thrombosis (LST/VLST) group, in-hospital (P = 0.004), 30-day (P < 0.00001), 1-year (P < 0.00001) and long-term mortality rates (P = 0.04) were significantly higher in the EST group. The in-hospital TVR/TLR rates were similar between the EST group and the LST/VLST group. However, a higher trend in TVR/TLR rate at 30 days and a significantly higher TVR/TLR rate at 1 year (P = 0.002) as well as at long-term follow up (P = 0.009) were found in the EST group. EST patients also trended toward higher risk of RST in both short- and long-term follow-up than LST/VLST patients, although differences were not statistically significant. After PCI treatment, patients with EST have worse clinical outcomes in both short- and long-term follow-up than patients with LST/VLST. Further studies are warranted to determine the optimal treatment strategies for EST.

Very late stent expansion with intracoronary lithotripsy: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundUnderexpanded stent in heavily calcified coronary lesion is common and persists over years. It is related to long-term failure and negative outcomes. Treatment of this situation after many years with intracoronary lithotripsy (ICL-Shockwave®) could be an option.Case summaryWe report a case of a man with underexpanded coronary stent implanted 11 years earlier. Optical coherence tomography highlighted the mechanism of stent underexpansion showing the presence of calcium stones under the old struts. Intracoronary lithotripsy crushed calcium under the stent struts causing its geometric change (from elliptical to round shape) and a consequent better transmission of the true radial force of the old stent.DiscussionHeavily calcified coronary lesions lead to stent underexpansion which persists over years. Intracoronary lithotripsy could be a very late option to manage this unfavourable common result.

A unique case of ST-elevation myocardial infarction related to very late stent thrombosis.

Project description:A 67-year-old man was transferred to our hospital because of anterior ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). He had a history of a sirolimus-eluting stent implantation from the left main to the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) 9 years before and had undergone laparoscopic prostatectomy 8 days before in the setting of discontinuation of dual antiplatelet therapy. Emergent coronary angiography showed total occlusion in the distal LAD that was successfully treated by aspiration alone. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) showed no vulnerable lesion from the occluded lesion to the proximal LAD. OCT demonstrated that the thrombus attached to floating struts at the left main bifurcation and non-apposed struts at the left coronary ostium partly protruding to aorta, while the other struts were covered and well-apposed. Based on OCT findings, this case of STEMI was thought to be caused by distal embolism of a thrombus that formed at the stent site before it evolved into total occlusion. <Learning objective: We demonstrated how optical coherence tomography can be essential in revealing the underlying pathology. The patient showed an unusual manifestation of ST-elevation myocardial infarction caused by distal embolism of a thrombus that formed at the sirolimus-eluting stent due to dual antiplatelet therapy discontinuation during perioperative period. Optical coherence tomography revealed very late stent thrombosis at the left coronary ostium and could elucidate the underlying mechanism.>.
