Mechanisms of drug-eluting stent restenosis

Drug-eluting stents (DES) were developed to overcome in-stent restenosis (ISR), which has long been considered the main complication limiting the long-term efficacy of coronary stenting. New-generation DES which composed of advanced stent design with and without specific biocompatible polymer contributes a reduction of the incidence of ISR to rate ranging from 5 to 10%. The precise reasons of DES restenosis are still controversial and not fully understood. Angiographic and coronary images at the index procedure, systemic status of patients, medications, and intracoronary imaging at ISR site are all considered to find the possible mechanisms of DES restenosis. Multiple biological, genetic, mechanical, and technical factors might intricately contribute to DES restenosis. Biological and genetic factors of ISR are not able to be sufficiently modified by the current medical approaches. Tailored treatments avoiding mechanical and technical factors of ISR are required to reduce DES restenosis. Elucidation of DES restenosis leads to further improvement in the current DES system and finds the optimal approach to treat DES restenosis. The possible mechanisms of DES restenosis are discussed in this review.
