[Successive decrease of left ventricular segmental kinetic disorders after transluminal coronary angioplasties in the same patient].
The authors report the case of a patient developing two successive left ventricular kinetic abnormalities secondary to acute or chronic ischemia, and reversible after transluminal coronary angioplasty. The concept of myocardial hibernation is suggested as a possible mechanism.
