Six-month success of intracoronary stenting for anomalous coronary arteries associated with myocardial ischemia.
Fourteen patients with anomalous coronary arteries associated with objective evidence of myocardial ischemia, a group at increased risk for cardiac events, were successfully stented. This led to 6-month patency and resolution of the ischemia, which was confirmed angiographically and by stress imaging studies.
