Sirolimus‐eluting stent is emerging as a potential solution for the prevention of restenosis. Recently, a sustained suppression of neointimal proliferation 12 months after implantation of this stent was reported. This is the first report of angiographic and IVUS images 18 months after the implantation of a sirolimus‐eluting stent. Cathet Cardiovasc Intervent 2002;57:65–68. © 2002 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
