Percutaneous vs. surgical revascularization for patients with unprotected left main stenosis: a meta-analysis of 5-year follow-up randomized controlled trials.

ABSTRACT:

Aims

A 5-year survival of patients with unprotected left main (ULM) stenosis according to the choice of revascularization (percutaneous vs. surgical) remains to be defined.

Methods and results

Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) vs. coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) with a follow-up of at least 5 years were included. All-cause death was the primary endpoint. MACCE [a composite endpoint of all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, and repeat revascularization] along with its single components and cardiovascular (CV) death were the secondary ones. Analyses were stratified according to the use of first- vs. last-generation coronary stents. Subgroup comparisons were performed according to SYNTAX score (below or above 33) and to age (using cut-offs of each trial's subgroup analysis). Four RCTs with 4394 patients were identified: 2197 were treated with CABG, 657 with first generation, and 1540 with last-generation stents. At 5-year rates of all-cause death did not differ [odds ratio (OR) 0.93, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.71-1.21], as those of CV death and stroke. Coronary artery bypass graft reduced rates of MACCE (OR 0.69, 95% CI 0.60-0.79), mainly driven by MI (OR 0.48, 95% CI 0.36-0.65) and revascularization (OR 0.53, 95% CI 0.45-0.64). Benefit of CABG for MACCE was consistent, although with different extent, across values of SYNTAX score (OR 0.76, 95% CI 0.59-0.97 for values < 32 and OR 0.63, 95% CI 0.47-0.84 for values ≥ 33) while was not evident for 'younger' patients (OR 0.83, 95% CI 0.65-1.07 vs. OR 0.65, 95% CI 0.51-0.84 for 'older' patients).

Conclusion

For patients with ULM disease followed-up for 5 years, no significant difference was observed in all-cause and cardiovascular death between PCI and CABG. Coronary artery bypass graft reduced risk of MI, revascularization, and MACCE especially in older patients and in those with complex coronary disease and a high SYNTAX score.

Project description:BackgroundDecisions to proceed with surgical versus percutaneous revascularization for multivessel coronary artery disease are often based on subtle clinical information that may not be captured in contemporary registries. The present study sought to evaluate the association between surgical ineligibility documented in the medical record and long-term mortality among patients with unprotected left main or multivessel coronary artery disease undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention.Methods and resultsAll subjects undergoing nonemergent percutaneous coronary intervention for unprotected left main or multivessel coronary artery disease were identified at 2 academic medical centers from 2009 to 2012. Documentation of surgical ineligibility was assessed through review of electronic medical records. Cox proportional hazard models adjusted for known mortality risk factors were created to assess long-term mortality in patients with and without documentation of surgical ineligibility. Among 1013 subjects with multivessel coronary artery disease, 218 (22%) were deemed ineligible for coronary artery bypass graft surgery. The most common explicitly cited reasons for surgical ineligibility in the medical record were poor surgical targets (24%), advanced age (16%), and renal insufficiency (16%). After adjustment for known risk factors, documentation of surgical ineligibility remained independently associated with an increased risk of in-hospital (odds ratio, 6.26; 95% confidence interval, 2.16-18.15; P<0.001) and long-term mortality (hazard ratio, 2.98; 95% confidence interval, 1.88-4.72, P<0.001) after percutaneous coronary intervention.ConclusionsDocumented surgical ineligibility is common and associated with significantly increased long-term mortality among patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention with unprotected left main or multivessel coronary disease, even after adjustment for known risk factors for adverse events during percutaneous revascularization.

Project description:BackgroundThe objective of this study was to evaluate the association of SYNTAX scores I, II, and residual with cardiovascular outcomes of patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and compare both procedures in a long-term follow-up.MethodsThis is a retrospective single-center study from the MASS registry at the Heart Institute of the University of São Paulo, Brazil in which 969 patients with stable coronary artery disease undergoing CABG (559) or PCI (410) were included. We assessed the SYNTAX scores I, II and residual in both interventions. Clinical endpoints were the first occurrence of a composite of overall death, myocardial infarction, stroke, or repeat revascularization (MACCE) and the total occurrence of each component of MACCE.ResultsIn the CABG sample, SSI had a median of 23 (IQR 17-29.5), median SSII of 25.4 (IQR 19.2-32.8), and median rSS of 2 (IQR 0-6.5); in PCI SSI had a median of 14 (IQR 10-19.1), median SSII of 28.7 (IQR 23-34.2), and median rSS of 4.7 (IQR 0-9). Total of 174 events were documented and CABG patients had a lower rate of MACCE (15.6% vs. 21.2%; adjusted HR 1.98; 95% CI 1.13-3.47; P = 0.016) and repeat revascularization (3.8% vs. 11.5%; adjusted HR 4.35; CI 95% 1.74-10.85; P = 0.002) compared with PCI. No SYNTAX score tertile found a difference in death rate between procedures. In a multivariate analysis, the rSS was an independent predictor for MACCE (HR 1.04; 95% CI 1.01-1.06; P = 0.001). Regarding death, the only independent predictors were ejection fraction and renal function.ConclusionSurgical revascularization resulted in a more complete revascularization and lower rates of major cardiac or cerebrovascular events in a long-term follow-up. Also, grading the incompleteness of revascularization through the residual SYNTAX score identified a higher event rate, suggesting that complete revascularization is associated with a better prognosis.
