“…26) Studies have also failed to demonstrate such a positive effect of direct stenting on restenosis when implanting drug-eluting stents. 11,12,27,28) Our results are also consistent with this finding, demonstrating a similar degree of late loss observed in both groups during the quantitative analysis of coronary angiography records at follow-up. Vascular endothelial trauma with a balloon during predilatation may be a source of restenosis due to "inappropriate balloon trauma" when implanting drug-eluting stents, if the entire traumatized site is not covered with the stent.…”

“…Interestingly, in all these cases balloon predilatation was performed before stent implantation, and in all but two cases care was taken to employ predilatation balloons with diameter and length not exceeding that of the subsequent stents. Direct stenting seems to be safe and feasible with both SES and PES, [19][20][21] and nonrandomized comparisons have shown a trend toward decreased restenosis and MACE with direct SES stenting. 22 Stent overlapping was also found to be an independent predictor of both MACE and TVR in our study, thus substantiating concerns regarding the delayed arterial healing and enhanced inflammation in this setting.…”
