Coronary artery and saphenous vein graft remodeling: a review of histologic findings after various interventional procedures--Part VI.
Catheter balloon angioplasty is a well accepted form of nonsurgical treatment of acutely and chronically obstructed coronary artery vessels. It is also the centerpiece for various new intervention techniques. Their morphologic effects on the site of obstruction has been termed "remodeling." Part VI of this six-part series focuses on atherectomy and restenosis tissue obtained by atherectomy procedures.
