Abstract

Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) as an invasive procedure includes inflation of a balloon and/or implantation of an endovascular prosthesis (stent) in an atherosclerotic coronary vessel at a level where the plaque narrows its cross-sectional area by more than 75%. Various reports have demonstrated that balloon inflation or stent implantation triggers inflammation and subsequent growth of smooth muscle cells. Both oxidative stress (OS) and inflammation parameters worsen, increasing the risk of complications. The polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMNL) is one of the inflammatory cells releasing reactive oxygen species contributing to OS, inflammation, and endothelial injury (Tardif, Cardiol Rounds 7(9), 2003).
