This study investigated the vascular response in early period after endeavor sprint implantation using optical coherence tomography (oct).A total of 31 zes in 30 patients underwent serial oct at immediate post-intervention and 3 months.Neointimal growth and malapposition were analyzed at each stent strut of cross-sectional oct images with 0.5-mm intervals.The incidence of malapposition at post-intervention and 3 months was 6.0% and 0.2%, respectively.However, late acquired malapposition was not detected at 3 months.Of 31 stents, 27 stents (87.1%) were covered completely with neointima, but the remaining 4 stents had 2 (0.8%), 4 (0.9%), 4 (1.2%), and 6 (1.4%) uncovered struts.Overall mean percentage of covered stent struts was approximately 99.9%.This finding was consistent among groups with acute coronary syndrome and stable angina pectoris.Intracoronary thrombus was documented in 1 stent (3.2%) among 31 stents.Stent edge dissection was detected in 14 lesions (45.2%) at the post-intervention but completely disappeared.On oct examination after 3 months.Thrombus was detected in 1 stent (3.2%) at 3 months, although it was visible in 11 stents (35.5%) at post- intervention.At 3 months, target vessel revascularization occurred in 2 patients.This study concluded that the most of the stent struts were covered with neointima, and late acquired malapposition was not found at 3 months after zes implantation.The study reported to demonstrate that endeavor sprint rx might have a favorable in vivo vascular response at 3 months after stent implantation.
