Abstract
This study provides the incidence of in-hospital and 1-month recurrent ischemia in 118 patients with acute myocardial infarction when an aggressive direct angioplasty strategy was performed, including stenting of the infarct artery. Coronary stenting in acute myocardial infarction is feasible, and acute and 1-month angiographic results after stenting seem superior to those after standard angioplasty alone. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
