Abstract

A patient presenting with 'edge' in-stent restenosis 12 years after the implantation of a bare-metal stent in the mid-left anterior descending coronary artery is described. Optical coherence tomography disclosed the presence of ruptured neoatherosclerosis at the stent edge. The value of this imaging technique to unravel this unique underlying anatomic substrate is discussed. The therapy of choice for patients presenting with edge in-stent restenosis (ISR) is reviewed.
