Percutaneous coronary intervention followed by intravascular brachytherapy for management of drug-eluting stents in-stent restenosis in patients with complex coronary artery lesions

Key Points

• Angioplasty followed by intravascular brachytherapy shows safe and effective management for stent restenosis.
• Patients with complex coronary artery lesions experience improved outcomes using this combined approach.
• Utilizing both percutaneous coronary intervention and brachytherapy addresses limited treatment options effectively.
• Findings highlight the potential for a novel approach in cases where traditional methods fail.
