| Summary: | Lyudmila Pivina,1 Gulnara Batenova,1 Nazarbek Omarov,1 Diana Ygiyeva,1 Assylzhan Messova,1 Galiya Alibayeva,2 Ulzhan Jamedinova,1 Ruslan Kurumbayev,1 Maksim Pivin3 1Department of Emergency Medicine, Semey Medical University, Semey, Abay Region, Kazakhstan; 2Semey Emergency Hospital, Semey, Abay Region, Kazakhstan; 3Nuclear Medicine Department, Center of Nuclear Medicine and Oncology, Semey, Abay Region, KazakhstanCorrespondence: Lyudmila Pivina, Email semskluda@rambler.ruBackground: One of the most serious complications of coronary artery stenting is restenosis and in-stent thrombosis; their prevalence can reach 20– 25%. Stent thrombosis can be acute (up to 24 hours), subacute (24 hours to 30 days), late (30 days to 1 year), and very late (> 1 year after previous stenting). In the patients with COVID-19 in intensive care units, the proportion of those with elevated troponin levels reached 25%.Objective: Evaluation of the association between COVID-19 and the development of in-stent thrombosis and restenosis of the coronary arteries based on the analysis of clinical cases and case series.Materials and Methods: We searched the PubMed and Scopus databases for relevant case reports and case series of stent restenosis and in-stent thrombosis associated with coronavirus infection (CVI) published between 2020 and the present. Thirty-eight full-text publications were screened and manually checked for analysis. We found 10 publications describing cases of thrombosis and restenosis of stents associated with coronavirus infection, of which only 2 were case series. In total, we analyzed 22 cases.Results: In the structure of in-stent restenosis and thrombosis, 59.1% were very late, 9.1% were late; 18.2% were considered subacute events, and 13.6% were acute events. All cases were angiographically confirmed. The main location of restenosis or thrombosis was the left coronary artery (LAD) (51.1%), thrombosis of the right coronary artery (RCA) occurred in 27.3%, and location in circumflex artery was in 22.7%. All patients had COVID-19 confirmed by a PCR test or the presence of immunoglobulins G and M. In fourteen patients (54.5%), an X-ray examination showed the presence of bilateral polysegmental infiltration.Conclusion: Analysis of publications demonstrates the association between restenosis and in-stent thrombosis in patients with coronary arteries disease (CAD) and coronavirus infection.Keywords: restenosis, in-stent thrombosis, stenting, COVID-19, coronary artery disease, case report, case series |
