New-generation drug eluting stent vs. bare metal stent in saphenous vein graft – 1 year outcomes by a propensity score ascertainment (SVG Baltic Registry)

Data regarding the efficacy of the percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with new-designed drug-eluting stent (new-DES) vs. bare metal stent (BMS) of saphenous vein grafts (SVG) stenosis is scarce. The primary objective was to compare one-year clinical outcomes of PCI in stenosis of SVG using new-DES vs. BMS in a real-world population.
