Figure 1 Incidence of PP in Relation to the Stent Length
Stent length was divided into 3 groups such as short stent length group (less than 18 mm, n = 137), intermediate stent length group (between 18 and 28 mm, n = 89), and long stent length group (more than 28 mm, n = 84). Plaque prolapse (PP) was most frequently observed in the group with the long stents (>28 mm) compared with the groups with short- ( 18 mm) or intermediate-length (>18 and 28 mm) stents.
