Table 1. Mehran's angiographic classification of ISR.
Type of ISR | Characteristics | Occurrence |
I-focal | Length < 10 mm | 42% |
IA | The articulation or gap between stents | |
IB | The proximal or distal margin | |
IC | The body of the stent | |
ID | Multifocal | |
II-diffuse | Length >10 mm, not exceeding the edges of the stent | 21% |
III-proliferative | Exceeding the edges of the stent | 30% |
IV-occlusive | Total occlusion with TIMI 0 | 7% |
ISR: in-stent restenosis; TIMI: thrombolysis in myocardial infarction.
