In 212 patients aged 75 years and older the immediate and long-term results of percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) were assessed. For 293 stenoses the primary angiographic success rate was 96% and the overall clinical success rate was 90.6%. Angioplasty caused a myocardial infraction in 7 patients (3.3%), 2 patients (0.9%) needed emergency aorto coronary bypass surgery, and 4 patients (1.9%) died following the procedure. Actuarial 7 year survival was calculated at 69.3% with a standard deviation (SD) of 8%. Actuarial cardiac survival at 7 years was 92.1% (SD 3%), whereas non-cardiac survival at 7 years was 75.3% (SD 9%). Actuarially, at 7 years 98.5% (SD 1%) were estimated to remain free from myocardial infarction in the angioplasty-related area, 95.7% (SD 2%) to remain free from any myocardial infarction, 93.9% (SD 2%) to remain free from re-PTCA because of a recurrence, 84.7% (SD 5%) to remain free from any re-PTCA, and 97.1% (SD 2%) to remain free from (re)-operation. Fifty-two point three percent (SD 8%) were estimated to remain free from any cardiac event. If recurrence of angina is taken into account, only 25.8% (SD 13%) remain asymptomatic during 7 years follow-up. After successful angioplasty in patients aged 75 and older the chance of remaining free from any event or angina at 7 years actuarial follow-up gets as low as 15.7% (SD 9%). We conclude that in selected elderly patients angioplasty can be performed with a high success rate, although the periprocedural mortality and morbidity appear to be higher than in the younger age group. During long-term follow-up, most of the patients remain free of cardiac events and survival appears to be largely dependent on noncardiac factors. However, long-term relief from angina is probably less than in younger patients.
对212例75岁及以上的患者评估了经皮腔内冠状动脉成形术(PTCA)的近期和远期效果。针对293处狭窄病变,血管造影的初始成功率为96%,总体临床成功率为90.6%。血管成形术导致7例患者(3.3%)发生心肌梗死,2例患者(0.9%)需要紧急进行主动脉冠状动脉搭桥手术,4例患者(1.9%)术后死亡。经计算,7年精算生存率为69.3%,标准差(SD)为8%。7年精算心脏生存率为92.1%(SD 3%),而7年非心脏生存率为75.3%(SD 9%)。经精算,在7年时,估计98.5%(SD 1%)的患者在血管成形术相关区域无心肌梗死,95.7%(SD 2%)的患者无任何心肌梗死,93.9%(SD 2%)的患者因复发无需再次进行PTCA,84.7%(SD 5%)的患者无需进行任何再次PTCA,97.1%(SD 2%)的患者无需进行(再次)手术。估计52.3%(SD 8%)的患者无任何心脏事件。如果将心绞痛复发考虑在内,在7年随访期间只有25.8%(SD 13%)的患者无症状。在75岁及以上患者成功进行血管成形术后,7年精算随访时无任何事件或心绞痛的几率低至15.7%(SD 9%)。我们得出结论,在经过挑选的老年患者中可以进行成功率较高的血管成形术,尽管围手术期死亡率和发病率似乎高于年轻患者群体。在长期随访中,大多数患者无心脏事件,生存率似乎很大程度上取决于非心脏因素。然而,长期缓解心绞痛的情况可能比年轻患者少。
