Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of small-vessel coronary artery disease (SVD) is challenging because of difficulties with equipment delivery and high restenosis rates. Drug-coated balloons (DCBs) are an attractive emerging PCI option for patients with SVD.
Small-vessel coronary artery disease
SVD was defined in the Intracoronary Stenting or Angioplasty for Restenosis Reduction in Small…
