PCI for unprotected left main coronary artery (ULMCA) lesions has a class Ⅱb indication according to recent guidelines.In this challenging subset of patients, PCI with drug eluting stent (DES) implantation has been shown to be a feasible and safe approach at mid-term clinical follow-up.

Background Conventional coronary artery bypass grafting (CCABG), performed with the use of cardiopulmonary bypass, is a well-validated treatment of patients with ischemic heart disease.
Drug-eluting stents significantly reduce the incidence of in-stent restenosis, which was once considered a major adverse outcome of percutanous coronary stent implantation.Localized release of antipro
