In order to determine how renal transplantation modifies in hospital and long-term outcome after coronary angioplasty, we compared dialysis and renal transplant patients with control patients without renal failure. Seventy-five consecutive dialysis patients (group D) and 37 renal transplant patients (group T) undergoing coronary angioplasty, were compared with two control groups (groups control D and control T, respectively) matched 1:1 with groups D and T for clinical and angiographic characteristics. The mean follow-up was 50 months.

In-hospital and long-term outcomes after coronary angioplasty in 28 dialysis diabetic and 84 dialysis nondiabetic patients were compared with clinical outcomes after coronary angioplasty in 28 nondialysis diabetic and 84 nondialysis, nondiabetic patients matched according to clinical and angiographic characteristics. The rate of angiographic success in diabetic dialysis patients was high and similar in the 4 groups. The risk of 4-year cardiac death and nonfatal myocardial infarction was higher in dialysis diabetics than in dialysis nondiabetics (odds ratio [OR] 1.

Aim: The safety and efficacy of ad hoc PTCA has been previously reported and this approach is performed in many angioplasty centers as a routine procedure. The aim of this study is to examine whether this approach reduces the length, and cost of hospital stay.

Methods And Results: To determine the hospital costs we studied 2,440 PTCAs over 11 years in our institution (1990-2000).
