【 摘 要 】

Background - The primary results of Arterial Revascularization Therapy Study reported a greater need for repeated revascularization after percutaneous coronary intervention with stenting (PCI). However, PCI was less expensive than coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and offered the same degree of protection against death, stroke, and myocardial infarction. Methods and Results - Patients with multivessel disease ( n = 1205) were randomly assigned to either CABG or PCI and followed up for up to 3 years. Survival rates without stroke or myocardial infarction were similar in each group at 1 year and 3 years ( 90.5% versus 91.4% for PCI versus CABG at 1 year and 87.2% versus 88.4% for PCI versus CABG at 3 years). However, the respective repeat revascularization rates were 21.2% and 26.7% at 1 and 3 years in patients allocated to PCI, compared with 3.8% and 6.6% in patients allocated to CABG ( P < 0.0001). Diabetes ( P < 0.0009) and maximal pressure for stent deployment ( P < 0.002) are the strongest independent predictors of events at 3 years after PCI, whereas left anterior descending coronary artery grafting ( P < 0.006) is the best predictor of event-free survival at 3 years after CABG. The incremental cost of surgery compared with PCI for an event-free patient was 19 257 E at 1 year but decreased to 10 492 E at 3 years. It remained at 142 391 E at 3 years when revascularization procedures were excluded in the efficacy end point, however. Conclusions - Three-year survival rates without stroke and myocardial infarction are identical in both groups, and the cost/benefit ratio of stenting is determined primarily by the increasing need for revascularization in the PCI group.
