Most instances of lone right ACAOS with interarterial course discovered in adults were physiologically insignificant and ran benign clinical courses. Conservative management may thus suffice in this setting if no definitive signs of myocardial ischaemia are evident.
Background:The benefit of complete (CR) vs. incomplete revascularization (IR) with drug-eluting stent (DES), unlike with bypass grafting, is not well established in patients with multivessel coronary artery disease (MVD).
Methods and Results
Conclusions:In MVD patients treated with DES, CR was associated with the long-term benefit in reducing any or cardiac death and MI. The main beneficiaries of CR were those with diabetes, low ejection fraction and low eGFR. (Circ J 2012; 76: 1624 - 1630
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
