With the growing age of the population, the proportion of elderly
patients with diffuse coronary artery disease and severe
comorbidities is increasing. The characteristics of these patients
render them unsuitable for currently recognized revascularization
procedures (CABG, PTCA). Therefore, there is an urgent need for new
treatment modalities which could alleviate their symptoms and
increase blood flow to the ischemic myocardium, while being less
invasive for their fragile condition. The aim of this book is to
provide an anatomical and physiological background as well as a
complete review of the alternative methods of revascularization
which are under development, namely transmyocardial laser
revascularization, therapeutic angiogenesis and neurostimulation.
