heal.abstractWe studied the clinical and angiographic outcome of patients with prior coronary arterial bypass grafting who underwent percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty at the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh. Over a 4 year period, 47 patients with prior bypass surgery underwent angioplasty of 23 stenotic graft sites and 37 stenotic sites of native vessels. The procedure was performed a mean of 31.3 months after surgery for recurrence of symptoms refractory to maximal medical treatment. Satisfactory angiographic results were achieved in 42 patients (58 stenotic grafts or native vessels). At a median follow up period of 18 months, 20 patients were symptomatically improved, but 22 patients experienced recurrence of symptoms a mean of 4.7 months after angioplasty, despite a good initial angiographic result. Overall, 4 patients had a repeat bypass grafting and 9 patients had a repeat angioplasty. Angioplasty can be used as an alternative to a repeat operation in patients with prior bypass grafting who experience recurrence of symptoms. Initial success rates are high and complication rates low. Restenosis or development of new lesions in the native circulation, and/or in the grafts, remain significant problems. Patients with a long asymptomatic interval (greater than 6 months) between the bypass operation and recurrence of symptoms are more likely to have better long-term results after successful angioplasty, perhaps because of slower progression of atherosclerotic heart disease.en
