No-reflow phenomenon and in vivo cholesterol crystals combined with lipid core in acute myocardial infarction

No-reflow phenomenon and in vivo cholesterol crystals combined with lipid core in acute myocardial infarction

Background: The release of lipid-laden plaque material subsequent to ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) may contribute to the no-reflow phenomenon. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between in vivo cholesterol crystals (CCs) detected by optical coherence tomogr...
