Late in-stent restenosis in a patient with drug-eluting stent

J Coll Physicians Surg Pak. 2005 Oct;15(10):648-9.

Abstract

Drug coated stents have reduced the incidence of in-stent restenosis with coronary intervention. Whether this effect is long lasting or just delaying the process is not clear. We report here a case of late in-stent restenosis with Rapamycin drug eluting stent.
