[X-ray morphology of coronary arteries in patients with arterial hypertension in late periods after endovascular treatment].

An association of arterial hypertension (AH) and late angiographic outcomes of endovascular interventions was studied in coronary heart disease. Forty two patients with or without AH underwent repeated coronary angiography within 2 months after the procedure. The total number of restenoses was found to be significantly greater in patients with AH than in those without it. The diameter of restenoses was significantly smaller (70.2 +/- 24.7 vs 48.2 +/- 29.2%) and their area is significantly larger (82.6 +/- 19.6 vs 66.9 +/- 28.8). Absence probability of restenosis was significantly smaller in patients with AH (7 vs 27%); at the same time there was the greatest reduction in this probability in the first 8 months following the intervention.
