  • Title: [The role cardiac surgery in the myocardial revascularization of patients with unstable angina in the era of interventional cardiology].
    Author: Pomar JL.
    Journal: Rev Esp Cardiol; 1999; 52 Suppl 1():141-7. PubMed ID: 10364823.
    Abstract:
    Indications for surgical myocardial revascularization in patients with unstable angina have been extended during the last years achieving similar results to those obtained in stable angina. On the other hand, percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty in this same subgroup of patients have achieved better results specially after the advent of intracoronary stenting. Selection of a specific technique of revascularization may be nowadays difficult and the update indications for both surgery and angioplasty are discussed.
