| pubmed-article:18097637 | pubmed:abstractText | Mounting interest has emerged on the role of distal embolization as a major explanation of poor myocardial perfusion among patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary angioplasty. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the relationship between vessel size, distal embolization, myocardial perfusion and clinical outcome in patients with STEMI treated by primary angioplasty. | lld:pubmed |
