BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Pathologists have shown that intraplaque hemorrhage contributes to plaque destabilization and is frequently co-located with cholesterol crystals (CC). Optical coherence tomography (OCT)-detected low-intensity area without attenuation (LIA) may represent intraplaque hemorrhage. We aimed to examine the prevalence and impact of OCT-detected LIA + CC in untreated non-culprit lesions (NCLs) on subsequent major adverse cardiac events (MACE). METHODS: OCT imaged NCLs in the culprit vessel in the patients who underwent OCT-guided percutaneous coronary intervention were included. An NCL was a lesion with >90° of diseased arc (≥0.5 mm intimal thickness), length ≥2 mm, and >5 mm away from stent edge. CC was defined as a thin linear region of high intensity. NCL-related MACE includes cardiac death, myocardial infarction, or ischemia-driven revascularization attributed to NCLs. RESULTS: We included 735 NCLs in 566 patients with 2.5 ± 0.7 years follow-up. The prevalence of concomitant LIA with CC (LIA + CC) was 15.5% (114/735). Three-year NCL-related MACE rate was 2.9% (20 events) at a lesion level and 15.6% (78 events) at a patient level. Untreated NCLs with LIA + CC had an increased risk for NCL-MACE (adjusted hazard ratio [HR] 3.09, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.27-7.50, p = 0.01) along with thin-cap fibroatheroma (adjusted HR 4.38, 95% CI 1.44-13.30, p < 0.01) and minimum lumen area <3.5 mm2 (adjusted HR 5.33, 95% CI 1.94-14.62, p < 0.01). Patients having ≥1 untreated NCL with LIA + CC had an increased risk for NCL-MACE (adjusted HR 1.95, 95% CI 1.19-3.19, p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: An OCT-detected LIA + CC in an NCL was associated with subsequent NCL-MACE.
