Non-cardiac procedures after DES: an everyday issue awaiting answers

Vinícius Esteves et al. Catheter Cardiovasc Interv. 2015 Aug.

Abstract

Need for non-cardiac surgery is a common event during the follow-up of patients treated drug-eluting stenting. The eventual associated risks of complications (bleeding and stent thrombosis) are relatively low. Larger clinical studies are needed to better delineate the optimal management of this population.
