It is somewhat incongruous that the successful performance of percutaneous transluminal coronary revascularization, a technically challenging and somewhat delicate endeavour, is predicated on the delivery of a traumatic insult to the vascular wall. This injury incites a cascade of compensatory responses, involving thrombosis and inflammation, vascular smooth muscle proliferation and migration, and matrix production and deposition. Although this reparative process usually stabilizes the site of injury and ensures a successful long term result, in 30 to 50% of cases it is excessive [1], resulting in compromise of the lumen with the potential for recurrent ischemia.
Our understanding of the process of restenosis, although not yet complete, has evolved considerably in recent years. There is a complex interplay of vessel wall remodeling and neointimal proliferation. Remodeling refers to a contracture or shrinkage of the vessel, primarily related to the inflammatory process in the vessel wall which involves the media and
