Abstract
A recent U.S. Food and Drug Administration report presented the currently available scientific information related to biological response to metal implants. In this work, a multilevel approach was employed to assess the implant-induced and biocorrosion-related inflammation in the adjacent vascular tissue using a mouse stent implantation model. The implications of biocorrosion on peri-implant tissue were assessed at the macroscopic level via in vivo imaging and histomorphology. Elevated matrix metalloproteinase activity, colocalized with the site of implantation, and histological staining indicated that stent surface condition and implantation time affect the inflammatory response and subsequent formation and extent of neointima. Hematological measurements also demonstrated that accumulated metal particle contamination in blood samples from corroded-stetted mice causes a stronger immune response. At the cellular level, the stent-induced alterations in the nanostructure, cytoskeleton, and mechanical properties of circulating lymphocytes were investigated. It was found that cells from corroded-stented samples exhibited higher stiffness, in terms of Young's modulus values, compared to noncorroded and sham-stented samples. Nanomechanical modifications were also accompanied by cellular remodeling, through alterations in cell morphology and stress (F-actin) fiber characteristics. Our analysis indicates that surface wear and elevated metal particle contamination, prompted by corroded stents, may contribute to the inflammatory response and the multifactorial process of in-stent restenosis. The results also suggest that circulating lymphocytes could be a novel nanomechanical biomarker for peri-implant tissue inflammation and possibly the early stage of in-stent restenosis. Large-scale studies are warranted to further investigate these findings.

Ko HC, Shin HS. Stretched and fractured Neuroform Atlas ® stent during a stent‑assisted coil embolization: A case report. Exp Ther Med 2023; 25:207. [PMID: 37090084 PMCID: PMC10119665 DOI: 10.3892/etm.2023.11906] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2022] [Accepted: 02/24/2023] [Indexed: 04/25/2023] Open
Abstract
The Neuroform Atlas® stent is one of the most recently developed stents for coil embolization, with advancements in a lower-profile delivery system, enhanced trackability, smaller cell size, and increased wall conformability. Because of these advantages, the Neuroform Atlas® stent shows high technical success with few procedure-related complications. However, the present study reported a rare complication of a stretched and partially fractured Neuroform Atlas® stent due to unexpected partial withdrawal of microcatheter during deployment for coil embolization of an intracranial aneurysm. The measured length of the stent was ~30 mm, which was greater than the normal length (21 mm). An additional stent was inserted into the distal part of the deployed stent to stabilize the damaged stent and remodel the aneurysm neck. This complication was considered to potentially result from the combination of several factors, including: Curved vessel; open-cell stent; unexpected microcatheter withdrawal during stent deployment; and hooking of the aneurysm selecting microcatheter with stent strut. Understanding the stent design and careful manipulation while avoiding unexpected withdrawal of the microcatheter could prevent this complication.

An Interesting Case and Literature Review of a Coronary Stent Fracture in a Current Generation Platinum Chromium Everolimus-Eluting Stent. Case Rep Cardiol 2018; 2018:4579184. [PMID: 29967699 PMCID: PMC6009011 DOI: 10.1155/2018/4579184] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2017] [Accepted: 05/20/2018] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Coronary interventions are the mainstay of treatment for stenotic coronary vascular lesions. New stent designs are constantly being evaluated to improve stent performances and clinical outcomes. Coronary stent fracture is uncommon; however, it is associated with potential major consequences including acute coronary syndrome and the need for repeated target vessel revascularization due to in-stent restenosis or stent thrombosis. We report a case of a 66-year-old man with an extensive cardiac disease history, who presented with intractable angina and was found to have a fracture of a current generation, platinum chromium everolimus-eluting stent (Synergy, Boston Scientific Inc.).
