Popis: To determine the relation between epicardial fat thickness and coronary in-stent restenosis in patients with acute myocardial infarction and percutaneous coronary intervention.A prospective study was conducted, which included 129 patients (67.3% male, mean age 62.9±10 years) with ST segment elevation acute myocardial infarction undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention with bare metal stent. Patients were divided in two groups according to the presence (n=21) or not (n=108) of in-stent restenosis during one year follow-up.Epicardial fat was significantly thicker in patients with coronary in-stent restenosis (5.51±1.6 vs 4.14±2.0mm, p=0.006). A proportionally and significantly thicker epicardial fat was found according to the increase in coronary disease severity (3.3±0.9mm vs 4.3±1.8mm vs 4.7±2.3mm vs 6.7±2.2mm, for type A, B1, B2 and C lesions, respectively, p=0.001) and number of vessels (3.07±1.2mm vs 4.92±1.8mm vs 5.43±2.2mm, for one, two and three vessels disease, respectively, p0.0001). Epicardial fat thickness ≥4.7mm had 75.0% sensibility and 69.0% specificity for predicting restenosis (AUC=0.737).Echocardiographic evaluation of epicardial fat thickness could identify those patients with acute myocardial infarction with greater probabilities of in-stent restenosis after percutaneous coronary intervention.
