Das koronare Steal-Syndrom - Kompetition zwischen linkem Arm und Vorderwand des Herzens -

Abstract

: Patients with recurrence of cardiac symptoms after CABG surgery and IMA graft may have a coronary-subclavian steal syndrome. Clinically, these patients present with arterial blood pressure differences between left and right arm of typically more than 20 mmHg. The therapy of choice are percutaneous transluminal revascularization procedures of the subclavian artery.
