Figure 5 Serial angioscopic images. (A) At baseline, a protruding mixed thrombus was seen. (B) Immediately after balloon angioplasty, a protruding thrombus and intimal flap were seen. (C) Immediately after stenting, a wide vessel lumen was obtained by the stent. (D) At one-month follow-up, a lining thrombus was seen. (E) At one-month follow-up, there was partial neointimal coverage (coverage score = 1). (F) At six-month follow-up, there was smooth and white plaque (coverage score = 4) without thrombus. F = intimal flap; GW = guide wire; L = lumen; YP = yellow plaque; T = thrombus.
