Abstract

Intravascular ultrasonography (IVUS) has an important role as a complimentary diagnostic tool in percutaneous coronary intervention procedure. IVUS provides valuable information regarding coronary vessel lumen and dimension and also plaque burden and its characteristic. The main use of IVUS in PCI is to guide the choose of interventional strategies to optimize stent deployment. Since drug eluting stent (DES) has promised to decrease the incidence in stent restenosis and stent thrombosis than bare metal stent, but neither the suboptimal results nor the complication after stenting with DES is still high. Thus, optimization of stent deployment under IVUS guidance is important in cases to decrease stent failure after PCI procedure, as well as to decrease complication rate after stenting in order to decrease mortality rate caused by coronary artery disease. We present here the use of IVUS guidance in a 43 and 46 year-old man underwent PCI.
