Nine years after the introduction of transluminal coronary angioplasty by Andreas Grüntzig, large medical centers all over the world report on an acute success rate between 85 and 90%. Complications leading to an emergency bypass operation are observed in 3-7%. The mortality rate is less than 1%. The technical progress with the development of new guiding catheters and steerable balloon systems led to an extension of indications. Probably prognostical aspects of indication may become more important in the future.
在安德烈亚斯·格鲁恩茨格引入经皮冠状动脉腔内血管成形术九年之后，世界各地的大型医疗中心报告其急性成功率在85%至90%之间。导致紧急搭桥手术的并发症发生率为3%至7%。死亡率低于1%。新型引导导管和可控气囊系统的发展带来的技术进步使适应症得以扩展。未来，适应症的预后方面可能会变得更加重要。
