For permanent coronary stents, reduction of thickness of struts have become one of the most important innovation, being related to easier manipulation, reduced risk of stent thrombosis and low rate of revascularization. Consequently the investigators performed a multicenter registry enrolling all consecutive patients treated with very thin stents for ULM or bifurcation.
For permanent coronary stents, reduction of thickness of struts have become one of the most important innovation, being related to easier manipulation, reduced risk of stent thrombosis and low rate of revascularization. Previous studies do not have enough power to detect potential significant difference for ULM or bifurcation lesions. Consequently the investigators performed a multicenter registry enrolling all consecutive patients treated with Biomatrix Flex, Xience Alpine, Ultimaster, Resolute Onyx and Synergy. MACE (a composite end point of death, myocardial infarction, target lesion revascularization and stent thrombosis) will be the primary end point, while its single components will be the secondary ones.

Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACE)
Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACE) is a composite end-point which includes: death for any cause; non fatal myocardial infarction; target lesion revascularization (TLR); in-stent thrombosis.
Time frame: 1 year
Target Lesion revascularization (TLR)
The investigators defined Target Lesion Revascularization as either repeat percutaneous or surgical revascularization for a lesion anywhere within the stent or the 5-mm borders proximal or distal to the stent.
Time frame: 1 year
Death
Death for any cause (both cardiologic and non-cardiologic)
Time frame: 1 year
non fatal myocardial infarction
non fatal myocardial infarction
Time frame: 1 year
Target Vessel Revascularization (TVR)
TVR is defined as any repeat PCI in the target vessel indicating the disease progression.
Time frame: 1 year
