Abstract

In-stent restenosis occurs not infrequently after intracoronary implantation of bare-metal stents. Many techniques have been proposed for the treatment of in-stent restenosis, but drug-eluting stents seem to provide the best early and mid-term results. We aimed to appraise whether the effectiveness of drug-eluting stents for in-stent restenosis is maintained even in the long term.
