Abstract
AIMS: To examine the effect of under-expansion on stent thrombogenicity with an in-vitro perfusion model. METHOD AND RESULTS: Drug eluting stent (DES) samples were partially under-deployed in silicone tubes and perfused with porcine blood containing 10% Anticoagulant Citrate Dextrose solution for 4 minutes at a flow rate of 200ml/min. Thrombus formation was evaluated and compared between the well apposed and malapposed sections. The malapposed sections showed significantly more thrombus formation compared to the well apposed sections (13.9 vs 0.41 mm2, p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Stent malapposition has a very direct impact on thrombus formation. Optimized stent implantation is required to minimize malapposition in DES and BVS to reduce thrombus formation.
