Abstract:
Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) has become an accepted therapy in the management of selected patients with obstructive coronary disease, including selected patients with multivessel disease. This article reports the authors' experience with PTCA in patients who underwent single or multiple dilatation angioplasty, their outcome, and follow-up. It also provides an additional perspective to the multivessel coronary disease patient.
