title: Morphologic observations in coronary arteries, aortocoronary saphenous vein bypass grafts, and infant aortae following balloon angioplasty procedures.
abstract: Morphologic observations following transluminal balloon angioplasty are summarized from eight adult patients undergoing coronary or saphenous vein bypass graft angioplasty and from an infant with aortic valve stenosis angioplasty. Possible mechanisms of dilation injury and complications of balloon bursting are discussed.
