“…Contrary to all other series published on unstable angina, patients are carefully recruited and demonstrate lesions suitable for both surgery and angioplasty [19][20][21][22]401, leaving room for frequent fall back on emergency bypass. This method is so strict that results can in fact be superior to those in angioplasty in general [22], and those of unstable angina patients treated surgically [1,7,8,41] (mortality 1.6 to 6%). On the other hand our results (excluding emergencies) are similar to those found in the few series to deal with stable, but poor candidates for surgery patients [37,38] (Tables 11-111).…”

“…This clinical context has a characteristic development which, if left untreated, leads to infarct or death [l-31. By-pass surgery has been the main therapeutic development for this disease, but there is a higher risk of infarct and mortality than in stable angina, even if technical improvements have reduced perioperative mortality from 10 to 3% in recent series [1,7,8].…”

“…Patients with stable angina are a relatively homogenous group with a well described natural history. However, unstable angina is a broad category which includes patients with a wide range of clinical presentations and varying prognosis [2][3][4]. While the angiographic characteristics of atherosclerotic plaque in stable and unstable angina have been widely studied, little information exists regarding the specific composition of the symptomproducing lesion in the various subsets of unstable angina.…”
