Polymer-based paclitaxel-eluting stents in percutaneous coronary intervention: a review of the TAXUS trials.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Controversy still exists regarding closure of atrial septal defects (ASDs) in patients >40 years of age who are largely asymptomatic or do not have large shunts (LS). If left unrepaired, the majority of patients will experience symptoms and will have a shorter life span compared to patients who undergo repai...
