Objective: To observe the clinical effects of partial revascularization on elderly patients with coronary artery diseases(CAD) METHODS: Percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) of the most likely culprit vessels were performed in 37 patients over 80 years old with multivessel coronary artery diseases (CAD).
Results: The success rate of PCI was 100% in these elderly patients without serious complications. The in-hospital mortality rate was 2.7%, and all the other patients recovered and were discharged.
Conclusion: Partial revascularization for elderly CAD patients can achieve satisfactory clinical results, and close attention should be given to the heart and kidney function of these patients.
