title: Comparison of creatine kinase elevation and outcome of comparison of percutaneous coronary intervention for saphenous vein graft in-stent restenosis versus de novo stenosis.
abstract: Percutaneous coronary intervention of saphenous vein grafts is associated with distal embolization. We aimed to compare potential differences in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention for in-stent restenosis with de novo saphenous vein graft lesions. Myocardial necrosis was associated with higher mortality regardless of lesion type.
