Two peri-stent contrast stainings and one late restenosis in the late phase after sirolimus-eluting stent implantation.

ABSTRACT: Both peri-stent contrast staining (PSS) and late restenosis are abnormal findings after drug-eluting stent implantation and they occur with low incidence. We describe a case with two PSSs and one late restenosis after sirolimus-eluting stent implantation. Persistent high value of C-reactive protein in this patient suggested chronic systematic inflammation as a contributing factor of these abnormal findings. .
