Abstract

We investigated the correlation between lesion morphology with preintervention intravascular ultrasound and in-stent restenosis in 72 patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the presence of ruptured plaque was the only predictive factor of in-stent restenosis after primary stenting for AMI.
