Popis: Acute reintervention was performed in 26 of 1,620 patients after coronary stenting (1.6%). Half of the patients had stent thrombosis and the other half residual anatomic problems. The mean time for reintervention was shorter in patients with stent thrombosis. All patients with stent thrombosis had a sudden recurrence of chest pain. Electrocardiographic changes were more common with stent thrombosis. Composite end point occurred in 10 patients (77%) with stent thrombosis versus 5 (39%) in the other group (p = 0.04).
