There have been over a dozen studies in the drug-eluting stent era comparing the effectiveness of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery for the treatment of unprotected left main disease. These studies have been both randomised and observational in nature. While both methodologies provide important insights, careful consideration of their respective strengths and limitations is imperative in generalising their findings.
在药物洗脱支架时代,已经有超过十几项研究比较了经皮冠状动脉介入治疗(PCI)和冠状动脉旁路移植术(CABG)治疗无保护左主干病变的有效性。这些研究既有随机对照试验,也有观察性研究。虽然这两种方法都提供了重要的见解,但在推广其研究结果时,必须仔细考虑它们各自的优点和局限性。
