abstract：:In single vessel disease angioplasty can replace surgery in the majority of patients. In cases of recurrence at the site of angioplasty or in the case of progression elsewhere, a second intervention can be performed. Thus, in the majority of patients surgery can be replaced; in the minority it can be delayed. In patie...
