title: Is the left main just another artery to FFR?
abstract: This meta-analysis includes all prospective FFR studies of the left main artery with outcomes. Patients who had deferral of revascularization in FFR-negative stenoses had no difference in cardiovascular events compared with patients who underwent revascularization. FFR-guided revascularization of left main stenosis is safe and effective.
