摘要

Left main (LM) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with routine intracoronary imaging guidance is recommended; however, its real-world effectiveness remains unclear. A total of 743 consecutive patients undergoing drug-eluting stent implantation for de novo unprotected LM lesions across 19 Japanese National Hospital Organization hospitals where routine imaging guidance was adopted were analyzed. The primary endpoint was 1-year major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE), comprising all-cause death, cerebrovascular disorder, clinical-driven revascularization, and myocardial infarction. In this cohort, acute coronary syndrome was present in 31.2%, with 39.3% classified as Canadian Cardiovascular Society functional angina (CCS) class ≥ III. LM bifurcation lesions were observed in 78.0%, with two-stent implantation in 8.8%. MACCE occurred in 17.5%, with target lesion revascularization and cardiac death rates of 2.0% and 3.4%, respectively. Independent risk factors for MACCE included two-stent implantation (hazard ratio [HR], 2.49), mechanical cardiac support device use (HR, 2.17), CCS class ≥ III (HR, 2.07), 10% increase in left ventricular ejection fraction (HR, 0.72), and radial access (HR, 0.62). Routine imaging-guided LM-PCI is associated with favorable low rate of target lesion revascularization and cardiac death. However, severe left ventricular dysfunction and LM bifurcation treated with two-stent implantation increase risks, requiring more comprehensive management.
