title: [Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty in acute myocardial infarction].
abstract: The attitude towards the treatment of acute myocardial infarction is currently changing. As an example of one of the new methods, a successful case of acute percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty is presented. Which of the new therapeutic regimens provides the best prognosis is unknown, but considering the resources and the hitherto published studies, intravenous thrombolysis seems in general to be the most advantageous, while the others ought only to be used on special indications.
