Abstract:
Personalized Therapeutic Concepts in Chronic Coronary Syndromes Abstract. Chronic coronary syndromes (CCS) are related to substantial morbidity and mortality. Myocardial ischemia in CCS is caused by either obstructive or non-obstructive alterations of the coronary arteries, including both morphological and functional changes of epicardial vessels and the coronary microvasculature. Diagnostic algorithms of patients with suspected CCS include non-invasive and invasive imaging and functional testing. Therapeutic management comprises lifestyle changes, optimal medical therapy, and coronary revascularization when indicated. This review summarizes the contemporary management of patients with CCS, focusing on the role of invasive assessment and treatment.
