Popis: The paper describes the mechanisms as well as clinical and angiographic risk factors for the development of restenosis after balloon coronary angioplasty. Based on literature findings and personal experience the ways of preventing restenosis were reviewed taking into account the optimisation of immediate angioplasty results based upon intracoronary ultrasound and physiological measurements of the coronary flow reserve. The paper also reviews the available techniques in the management of restenosis after balloon coronary angioplasty.
