Continued benefit of coronary stenting versus balloon angioplasty: five-year clinical follow-up of Benestent-I trial
No full textA comparison of balloon-expandable-stent implantation with balloon angioplasty in patients with coronary artery disease
No full textBalloon-expandable coronary-artery stents were developed to prevent coronary restenosis after coronary angioplasty. These devices hold coronary vessels open at sites that have been dilated. However, it is unknown whether stenting improves long-term angiographic and clinical outcomes as compared with standard balloon angioplasty
