主　　题：drug-eluting stent coronary aneurysm very late stent thrombosis 

摘      要：Since drug-eluting stents （DES） can significantly reduce the risk of instant restenosis compared with bare-metal stents, they have been widely used in interventional therapy for coronary heart disease. With bare-metal stents being rapidly replaced by DES there is a great concern about the safety of DES due to stent *** late stent thrombosis （VLST） has been categorized as occurring beyond 1 year.3 Coronary aneurysm formation induced stent malapposition is a rare but potentially fatal cause of VLST. We report a case of coronary aneurysm with VLST formation 35 months after sirolimus-eluting stent （SES） implantation.
