      published in this journal an interesting prospective observational study regarding 82 patients at high-risk with instent restenosis of bare-metal stent, n = 48 (59%) or drug-eluting stent (DES), n = 34 (41%). All patients had at least one of the following high-risk features: a history of hemorrhagic stroke or gastrointestinal bleeding, ischemic stroke not longer of 3 months before, need for oral anticoagulation or noncardiac surgery or recent surgery, chronic inflammatory disease, or neoplasm. Patients presenting with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction and with paclitaxel hypersensivity

In.Pact Falcon (Medtronic Inc., Minneapolis, Minnesota), Pantera Lux (Biotronik, Bulach, Switzerland), and Restore (Cardionovum GmbH, Bonn, Germany) were the 3 drug-coated balloons (DCBs) available for percutaneous coronary interventions. In all cases the lesion was predilatated with a semicompliant or noncompliant balloon.

      • Efficacy and Safety of Paclitaxel-Coated Balloon for the Treatment of In-Stent Restenosis in High-Risk Patients
        American Journal of CardiologyVol. 116Issue 11
        • Preview
          In-stent restenosis (ISR) is a major cause of failure of percutaneous coronary intervention. The efficacy and safety of drug-coated balloon (DCB) in patients with high-risk clinical features are largely unknown. We enrolled 82 consecutive patients at high risk of bleeding with angiographically significant (diameter stenosis ≥50%) ISR of bare metal stent (BMS) or drug-eluting stent (DES), treated with paclitaxel-coated balloon. All patients presented at least one of the following criteria: high bleeding risk, neoplasm, chronic inflammatory disease, and need for noncardiac surgery.
