  • Title: Percutaneous coronary intervention for left main coronary artery disease.
    Author: Gauthier N, Le May MR.
    Journal: Expert Rev Cardiovasc Ther; 2007 Mar; 5(2):213-20. PubMed ID: 17338666.
    Abstract:
    Coronary artery bypass surgery is the currently accepted treatment for unprotected left main coronary artery disease. Currently, the data supporting the safety and efficacy of stents for unprotected left main coronary disease are derived mostly from nonrandomized, single-center studies or registries. These results appear promising but large randomized trials are needed to guide therapy of this potentially lethal disease.
