Background: There is limited information about optimal management of drug-eluting stent (DES) restenosis. This study evaluated the incidences of re-restenosis and re-target lesion revascularization (TLR) after the treatment of sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) restenosis. Methods and Results: A total of 102 lesions in 101 patients who underwent TLR for SES restenosis were classified according to: (1) focal (lesion length ≤10 mm) or non-focal restenosis (>10 mm); and (2) use of DES for TLR: (1) focal restenosis treated with DES (focal-DES, n=40); (2) focal restenosis treated by balloon angioplasty (focal-balloon, n=31); (3) non-focal restenosis with DES (non-focal-DES, n=17); and (4) non-focal restenosis by balloon angioplasty (non-focal-balloon, n=14). Re-restenosis and re-TLR were observed in 6 (19.4%) and 5 lesions (12.5%) of the focal-DES group, in 13 (65.0%) and 11 (35.5%) of the focal-balloon group, in 7 (50.0%) and 6 (35.3%) of the non-focal-DES group, and in 8 (61.5%) and 7 (50.0%) of the non-focal-balloon group, respectively (P<0.05 for restenosis and TLR between the focal-DES group and other groups). Conclusions: Re-DES implantation for focal DES restenosis results in lower re-restenosis and re-TLR rates compared to re-DES implantation for non-focal DES restenosis or conventional balloon angioplasty either for focal or non-focal DES restenosis.
