    Abstract:
    To address the issue of whether probucol reduces clinical events after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA), we surveyed clinical status at 1 year after PTCA of 101 patients who had entered the Probucol Restenosis Angioplasty Trial. Repeat angioplasty at index lesions were required in 5 patients in the probucol group and in 12 in the control group, suggesting that probucol administered beginning 4 weeks before PTCA reduces repeat revascularization rates for 1 year.
