BACKGROUND Recent reports suggest an elevated incidence of bioresorbable vascular scaffold (BVS) thrombosis (scaffold thrombosis [ScT]). OBJECTIVES This study investigated occurrence rates, clinical and angiographic characteristics, and possible mechanisms of ScT in all-comer patients undergoing BVS implantation at 2 German and 2 Swiss hospitals. METHODS A total of 1,305 consecutive patients (mean age 64 years, 78% male) who received 1,870 BVS (mean 1.4 +/- 0.8 BVS/patient) were enrolled. Clinical/procedural characteristics, mortality, and ScT data at 485 days (range 312 to 652 days) were examined. RESULTS ScT occurred in 42 patients. The incidence of probable and definite ScT was 1.8% at 30 days and 3.0% at 12 months, without differences among centers (p = 0.60). A total of 22 (52%) ScTs presented as ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction and 6 (17%) as sudden cardiac death. In multivariable analysis, ostial lesions (p = 0.049) and impaired left ventricular ejection fraction (p = 0.019) were independently associated with ScT. Nine (21%) of the ScTs occurred in patients who had suspended dual antiplatelet therapy, in 6 cases prematurely. Lower post-procedural minimum lumen and reference vessel diameters were hallmarks of ScT (all p < 0.0001). The risk of ScT appeared to rapidly increase for post-procedural minimum lumen diameters below 2.4 mm (for the 2.5- to 3.0-mm BVS) and 2.8 mm (for the 3.5-mm BVS). When a BVS-specific implantation strategy was implemented, 12-month ScT rates fell from 3.3% to 1.0%, an effect that remained significant when adjusted for multivariable propensity score (p = 0.012; hazard ratio: 0.19; 95% confidence interval: 0.05 to 0.70). CONCLUSIONS The 12-month incidence of ScT reached 3% and could be significantly reduced when an optimized implantation strategy was employed.
