摘要: Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) was introduces by Andreas Gruentzig in 1977, as an alternative treatment for artery bypass grafting (CABG) to restore blood flow patients with obstructive disease (15). Increased experience and advances technology have resulted a high primary success rate (over 90%) low compilation (death, non-fatal myocardial infarction; 4–5%) (9). However, the late restenosis (17% 40%) still limits long-term benefit of procedure (21, 23, 47, 52).
