Peristent remodeling and neointimal suppression 2 years after polymer-based, paclitaxel-eluting stent implantation: insights from serial intravascular ultrasound analysis in the TAXUS II study.
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to evaluate long-term vascular responses as long as 2 years after implantation of polymer-based, paclitaxel-eluting stents in contrast to uncoated stents. METHODS AND RESULTS: TAXUS II is a randomized, double-blind trial comparing slow-release (SR) and mode...
