Brief Summary

Stent thrombosis is an important issue in drug eluting stents. Incomplete endothelial coverage and neointimal coverage over strut after drug eluting stent (DES) implantation could be a possible cause of stent thrombosis. Therefore, theoretically dual antiplatelet therapy should be continued to prevent the stent thrombosis until complete reendothelialization. But, detection of endothelial coverage over stent is not possible with the available intravascular devices in clinical practice. Among currently available intravascular devices, intravascular optical coherence tomography (OCT) could give a more clear identification for a thin layer of neointima with high-resolution (10-20 μm) compared to intravascular ultrasound (100-150 μm). Previous OCT studies showed the significant different pattern of neointimal coverage between bare metal stent (BMS) and DES. In the investigators' experience, there were also some differences in neointimal coverage among the DESs, especially zotarolimus eluting stent (ZES). ZES has been known to be associated with significantly more neointimal coverage than SES at 8 months intravascular ultrasound (IVUS). Both everolimus eluting stent (EES) and ZES resolute were recently introduced. The efficacy to suppress the neointimal growth for ZES resolute and EES might be improved, but safety for neointimal coverage needs to evaluate in human coronary artery. Therefore, this study will investigate the pattern of neointimal coverage over stent in ZES resolute and EES at 9 months after stent implantation.
