Popis: BACKGROUND Whether polymeric bioresorbable vascular scaffolds (BVS) implantation with transradial approach is feasible and safe is unknown. We compared the feasibility and safety of the transradial approach for BVS delivery with metallic drug-eluting stents (DES). METHODS We identified 118 consecutive patients who underwent BVS implantation and we compared 30-days and 1-year results with 118 matched patients with DES. Patients were matched for age, sex, risk factors and clinical indication. RESULTS Rates of transradial approach were 98% in the BVS group vs 95% in the DES group (P = 0.16) with 5Fr used in 38% and 32% (P = 0.34), respectively. The number of stents was similar in both groups, 2.6 ± 1.5 vs 2.4 ± 1.3 (P = 0.23). Although maximal pressure for stent deployment was identical in both groups (16 ± 3 atm), more lesions were pre-dilated (83% vs 52%, P
