We have noted abnormal angiographic findings--at the sites of drug-eluting stent implantation, suggesting contrast staining outside the stent struts--that do not fulfill the classic definition of coronary artery aneurysm. We propose a new term, peri-stent contrast staining (PSS), for these abnormal angiographic findings and assess their incidence, risk factors, and clinical sequelae.
