Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty is a nonsurgical method of dilating stenotic coronary arteries and relieving angina. Successful outcome is directly related to operator experience. Although the complication rate is low, restenosis remains a significant problem. The role of percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty is still evolving, but it has already become a reasonable treatment option for many patients with symptomatic ischemic heart disease.
