Coronary Blood-flow Responses During Successful Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty
Overview
Affiliations
With the use of thermodilution techniques, changes in coronary sinus blood flow were measured during balloon catheter dilation of a high-grade stenosis within the left anterior descending coronary artery. Postdilation increases in flow occurred in a patient who experienced complete relief from previously incapacitating angina pectoris.
