Procedural factors, particularly inadequate postprocedure lumen dimensions, are key contributors to subacute stent thrombosis.
Subacute stent thrombosis is infrequently related to the preintervention lesion characteristics. Inadequate postprocedure lumen dimensions, alone or in combination with other procedurally related abnormal lesion morphologies (dissection, thrombus, or tissue prolapse), contribute to this phenomenon.
Cheneau et al. (Tue,) studied this question.
