In consecutive patients with ULMCA stenosis PCI is associated with higher MACCE rates than CABG but there is no difference in death and MI. Later year of index angiography, higher age, lower systolic blood pressure, higher predicted per-procedural surgical risk, less complex coronary anatomy and angiographer favoring PCI increased the probability of revascularization with PCI instead of CABG.
