Five-Year Follow-Up of the Medicine, Angioplasty, or Surgery Study (MASS II) A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial of 3 Therapeutic Strategies for Multivessel Coronary Artery Disease

TL;DR: CABG was superior to MT in terms of the primary end points, reaching a significant 44% reduction at the 5-year follow-up of patients with stable multivessel coronary artery disease, and was associated with an incidence of long-term events and rate of additional revascularization similar to those for PCI.
Journal ArticleDOI

The medicine, angioplasty, or surgery study (MASS-II): a randomized, controlled clinical trial of three therapeutic strategies for multivessel coronary artery disease: One-year results

TL;DR: Medical therapy for multivessel CAD was associated with a lower incidence of short-term events and a reduced need for additional revascularization, compared with PCI, and CABG was superior to MT for eliminating anginal symptoms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nonsurgical transthoracic epicardial catheter ablation to treat recurrent ventricular tachycardia occurring late after myocardial infarction.

TL;DR: Postinfarction pericardial adherence does not preclude epicardial mapping and ablation to control VT related to an epicardials circuit in postinferior wall myocardial infarction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Treatment decision in asymptomatic aortic valve stenosis: role of exercise testing

TL;DR: Exercise testing is safe and is of prognostic value in asymptomatic patients with aortic stenosis and the occurrence of end point events for the variables studied.
