SCAI classification of in-stent restenosis: a system based on time interval and causative factor

Classification Time interval Morphologic substrates
Early <30 d
  • Undersizing

  • Underexpansion

  • Stent fracture

Late 30 d to 1 y
  • Delayed healing (including drug induced)

  • Uncovered stent struts

  • Intimal hyperplasia (especially in BMS ISR)

Very late >1 y
  • Neoatherosclerosis

  • Intimal hyperplasia

  • Stent fracture

BMS, bare metal stent; ISR, in-stent restenosis.
