title: Absence of correlation between coronary thrombosis and postatherectomy restenosis.
abstract: This study endeavored to assess whether thrombus in directional coronary atherectomy was correlated with later subsequent restenosis. We concluded that the presence of thrombus in native plaque is not correlated with the occurrence of postatherectomy restenosis.
