| Popis: | Data analyses of angioplasty patients, whose operative and angioplasty (PTCA) intervalwas ≥ 5 years, were performed to determine if the site of PTCA (coronary artery (CA) and/or vein bypass graft (VG)) influenced longevity. PTCA was successful in 677/768 lesions (88%) (377/432 CA (87%), and 294/327 VGs (90%)) and resulted in clinical improvement in 280/322 patients (87%). Patients were stratified into those who underwent PTCA of a lesion(s) in a coronary artery only, a vein graft only, or in both a coronary artery and a vein graft. Survival, at 60 months, was adversely affected ( P |
