Restenosis following successful coronary angioplasty (PTCA): The result of inadequate dilatation? Relation between primary success and late results

Abstract

In a previous study we found indications, that the extent of initial dilatation influences the late outcome of PTCA. For this reason the effect of the primary dilatation was analysed based on a consecutive series of 154 successful angioplasties (stenosis reduction ≥20%-diameter) for proximal coronary stenoses.
