Revascularization therapy significantly improves the outcomes of patients with left main coronary artery disease (LMCAD), compared with medical therapy alone. For many years, coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) has been the primary and standard treatment strategy. However, with advances in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) techniques and improvements in patients' outcomes, there is growing evidence supporting PCI for LMCAD. In this review, we aim to integrate the available evidences on advances in PCI treatment for LMCAD and provide guidance for further clinical practice.
与单纯药物治疗相比,血运重建治疗能显著改善左主干冠状动脉疾病(LMCAD)患者的预后。多年来,冠状动脉旁路移植术(CABG)一直是主要的标准治疗策略。然而,随着经皮冠状动脉介入治疗(PCI)技术的进步以及患者预后的改善,越来越多的证据支持将PCI用于LMCAD的治疗。在本综述中,我们旨在整合有关LMCAD的PCI治疗进展的现有证据,并为进一步的临床实践提供指导。
