[Clinical aspects of arteriosclerotic stenosis of the left coronary artery main stem].
Authors have found 37 significant (greater than 50%) or severe (greater than 75%) cases of left main stem stenosis (LMS) (3.4%, 35 male and 2 female) during 1097 consecutive selective coronarography. Retrospective analysis of the clinical data of the 35 male pts. showed severe effort or resting anginal complaints in the 2/3 of the pts., however this was not in tight connection with the degree of the LMS stenosis or the number of associated peripheral coronary stenoses respectively, similar to the ischaemic disorders of the resting ECG. In the bycicle ergometry ECG data lone the double index showed statistically significant difference between the groups of less than or equal to 2 and 3 vessel diseases connected to the severe LMS. Myocardium scintigraphy was performed out in 6 pts., all of them has given positive result. They emphasise the necessarity of urgent revascularisation against the higher risk of the intervention because of the pour results of the medical treatment.
