Core Tip Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has made progress in leaps and bounds in the last 20 years. Complications occurring with catheter balloons and bare metal stents have been overwhelmed by drug-eluting stents (DESs), especially the new-generation ones. They are characterized by innovations in design, metal composition, surface polymers, and anti-proliferative drugs, thus reducing the risk for stent thrombosis and greatly improving revascularization outcomes. DESs also need dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT), but the latter implies bleeding complications, too. Patients undergoing PCI should be implanted with DESs and DAPT should be tailored on each patient considering the bleeding risk.
