Distal coronary hemoperfusion during percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA)-with an autoperfusion balloon or active systen+facilitates prolonged balloon inflation. Prolonged inflations may tack up intimal dissections and improve the primary angloplasty result in complex lesions. Addit
Restenosis following coronary angioplasty can usually be treated effectively and safely by repeated angioplasty. However, the presence of a complex lesion morphology may bias the clinician away from angioplasty toward either recommending bypass surgery or continuing medical therapy alone in spite of
In order to determine the relationship of restenosis following percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) to risk factors such as hypercholesterolemia, hyperglycemia, smoking, and weight, we performed a univariate analysis to test the association of these variables with restenosis in 723
