Forty patients with unstable angina refractory to medical treatment had one vessel percutaneous transluminal angioplasty to the most stenotic lesion in a major coronary artery. The procedure was successful in 35 patients, and the remaining five patients underwent emergency coronary artery bypass graft surgery. The initial success rate (84%) for the 16 patients with single or the 19 patients with multivessel disease (90%) was similar. At early follow up (average nine days) all patients with successful angioplasty remained symptomatically improved; 10 patients (83%) with single and 10 patients (63%) with multivessel disease had negative treadmill stress tests. Five of six cardiac events occurred within the intermediate (average 11 months) follow up period; two patients had recurrent refractory unstable angina, two had angioplasty for progression of disease in a vessel not previously treated by angioplasty, and one had bypass graft surgery. During late (average 26 months) follow up one patient had a non-fatal myocardial infarction while seven patients (58%) with single vessel disease and nine patients (75%) with multivessel disease had negative stress tests; 29 of 40 patients showed long term improvement.
