ABSTRACT
Objective: In comparison with thrombus aspiration, to study the safety and effcacy of precise intracoronary retrograde thrombolysis during primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Methods: A total of 123 consecutive patients with acute STEMI received primary PCI in our hospital from 2014-01 to 2015-12 were enrolled.The patients were randomly divided into 2 groups: RT group, the patients received precise intracoronary retrograde thrombolysis (RT),n=60 and TA group, the patients received thrombus aspiration (TA),n=63, among them, 3 patients with failed TA were excluded. Primary end points included occurrence rates of no-lfow after PCI and ST-segment resolution (STR)≥50% at (60-90) min after PCI; primary safety end points included occurrence rates of in-hospital stroke and TIMI-hemorrhage events. Results:①Compared with TA group, RT group showed decreased no-lfow rate after PCI (1.7% vs 15.0%),P=0.008 and increased rate of STR≥50% after PCI (65.0% vs 45.0%),P=0.028, improved LVEF by echocardiography (50.7±8.6) % vs (46.7±8.3)%,P=0.011. The in-hospital MACE occurrence rate was similar between 2 groups,P>0.05.②No in-hospital stroke or TIMI-hemorrhage events occurred in neither group. Conclusion: Intracoronary retrograde precise thrombolysis had the similar safety to thrombus aspiration during primary PCI in patients with acute STEMI, it may reduce no-relfow rate and improve left ventricular function after PCI.
ABSTRACT
A 69-year old female patient was admitted because of 3 days of worsened chest pain.Coronary angiography showed60% stenosis of distal left main stem,chronic total occlusion of left anterior descending (LAD),70% stenosis at the ostium of a smallleft circumflex,70-90%stenosis at the paroxysmal and middle part of a dominant fight coronary artery (RCA),and a normal left internalmammary artery (LIMA) with normal origination and orientation.Percutaneous intervention was attempted but failed on the occludedlesion of LAD.The patient received minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (MIDCAB) with left LIMA isolation by Davincirobot.Eleven days later,the RCA lesion was treated by Sirolimus Rapamicin eluting stents implantation percutaneously.Then thepatient was discharged uneventfully after 3 days hospitalization.Our experience suggests that two stop shops of hybrid technique befeasible and safe in the treatment of elderly patient with multiple coronary diseases.
