Coronary artery stenting is yet another new development in the perpetual quest to find a permanent cure for coronary stenosis. Interventional cardiologists need information on the design and mechanical properties of the different available stents, and their clinical applications, both in terms of technique of insertion and positioning, patient selection and outcome. This comprehensive guide covers the whole field in depth, giving both the basic background and application to patient care. In this guide, all current models of stents are discussed one by one, and all individual aspects are covered; associated complications, adjunctive therapies, and management of restenosis are also included. All authors involved are pioneers in the field, with great technical and clinical experience.
