Objectives: Restenosis is the major limitation of coronary interventions occurring in nearly a third of the patients undergoing percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) with no single, definite predictor demonstrated in an individual patient. Platelets are known to play an important role in the pathogenesis of subsequent restenosis.
Methods And Results: In a prospective study, follow-up coronary angiographies were performed in 102 consecutive patients with stable angina who underwent a successful PTCA for single-vessel coronary artery disease.
