Abstract
Two patients who developed restenosis after implantation of Palmaz-Schatz coronary stents were successfully treated by transluminal extraction atherectomy and there has been no recurrence on follow-up angiograms. The optimum strategy for managing restenosis after coronary stenting remains unclear, but transluminal extraction atherectomy appears to be a safe and effective option. © 1993 Wiiey-Liss, Inc.Keywords
