The objective of this study was to examine long-term changes after bare metal stent implantation in a relatively large number of patients. There are few reports of intravas-cular ultrasound (IVUS) studies performed on stented and nonstented (reference) seg-ments beyond 6 months after bare metal stenting. Using IVUS, we evaluated serial changes in stented and reference segments between 6 and 24 months after stent implantation in 110 patients with 120 lesions. Serial IVUS images were acquired at five equidistant intrastent sites and at two different reference segment sites. Measure-ments were made of the external elastic membrane (EEM), stent, lumen, and intimal hyperplasia (IH = stent 2 lumen) area. For the whole patient group, between 6 and...
