245 _aIVUS-Guided versus angiography-Guided PCI in unprotected left main coronary disease
300 _apáginas: 2189-2199
520 _aBackground: Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is increasingly used for revascularization of unprotected left main coronary artery disease. Whether intravascular ultrasonographic (IVUS) guidance during PCI results in better clinical outcomes than conventional angiographic guidance alone is uncertain. Methods: In an international, multicenter, open-label trial, we randomly assigned patients with unprotected left main coronary artery disease in a 1:1 ratio to undergo either IVUS-guided PCI or angiography-guided PCI. The primary end point was a patient-oriented composite of any stroke, any myocardial infarction, any revascularization, or death from any cause at the longest follow-up. Results: A total of 806 patients underwent randomization; 401 were assigned to undergo IVUS-guided PCI and 405 to undergo angiography-guided PCI. The mean (±SD) age of the patients was 71.4±10.7 years, 78.4% of the patients were men, and 34.7% had diabetes. At a median follow-up of 2.9 years, a primary end-point event had occurred in 135 patients (33.7%) in the IVUS-guided PCI group and in 125 patients (30.9%) in the angiography-guided PCI group (hazard ratio, 1.11; 95% confidence interval, 0.87 to 1.42; P=0.40). The incidence of death, myocardial infarction, or revascularization appeared to be similar in the two groups. The percentages of patients with procedure-related and overall safety events also appeared to be similar in the two groups. Conclusions: Among patients with unprotected left main coronary artery disease, IVUS-guided PCI showed no additional benefit over angiography-guided PCI with respect to the incidence of stroke, myocardial infarction, any revascularization, or death from any cause at a median follow-up of 2.9 years.
