Even though success rates of percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) are influenced by gender, women are at higher risk for adverse procedural events. Plaque dissection has been demonstrated to cause more adverse cardiac events during PTCA in the female gender than the male, but it is not clear how much it could influence stent implantation and procedural complications in the stent era. This study sought to evaluate whether the prevalence of dissection is equal in men and women with similar vessel size, which factors are associated with the risk of this complication and whether stenting has modified the immediate outcome.
