Abstract:

The article presents case report of step-by-step treatment of patient with coronary arteries disease (CAD). Male, 47 yrs in 1996 underwent aorto-coronary bypass with making of 7 bypasses. Due to progression of atherosclerotic disease in postoperative perion patient underwent percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplastics (PTCA). Despite of all procedures new coronary arteries and bypasses defeat appeared and restenosis of previously implanted stents was pointed. Patient was treated in different countries (Israel, Germany Japan, Russia) with different methods, including: drug-eluting stents, angioplasty with the help of excimer laser and rotational atherectomy Application of physical and mechanical isolation of hyperplastic intima (excimer laser, rotational atherectomy) did not give significant decrease of restenosis repeat. Implantation of drug-eluting stents also had no effect. Stent-in-stent implantation in case of drug-eluting stent restenosis led to repeated restenosis in this patient.

Thus, restenosis is a serious problem for interventional cardiologists. Any of available interventional methods provide optimum direct results, and the long-term results are even poorer.
