Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Patients with a coronary artery occlusion are more likely to be revascularized surgically or to be treated conservatively than patients without occlusion. A higher prevalence of patients with multivessel coronary artery disease (CAD), particularly with 3-vessel CAD, in the group with occlusion may account in part for this difference in management.
