Excimer laser angioplasty with adjunctive percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty of chronic coronary artery occlusions was performed using the Litvack 1.3 Z laser catheter in 80 patients in whom the occlusion could be passed by a guidewire; success rate was 89%. Angiographic follow-up revealed a restenosis rate of 33% and a reocclusion rate of 20%, and clinical follow-up showed a significant symptomatic improvement. It is concluded that laser angioplasty is a promising method for the treatment of chronic coronary artery occlusions.
