Primary percutaneous coronary intervention in ST-elevation myocardial infarction with an ectatic infarct-related artery.

abstract：INTRODUCTION:The primary end points of randomized clinical trials evaluating the outcome of therapeutic strategies for coronary artery disease (CAD) have included nonfatal acute myocardial infarction, the need for further revascularization, and overall mortality. Noncardiac causes of death may distort the interpretatio...
