Does microvascular obstruction affect infarct healing and left ventricular remodelling following primary percutaneous coronary intervention?
Does microvascular obstruction affect infarct healing and left ventricular remodelling following primary percutaneous coronary intervention?
Microvascular obstruction is a major determinant of infarct healing and subsequent left ventricular remodelling following primary percutaneous coronary intervention.

MVO may shape post-PCI LV remodelling patterns; leaves open whether targeting it improves outcomes in trials.
Microvascular obstruction is an important determinant of infarct healing. The effect of MO on infarct size translated into distinct patterns of LV remodelling during long-term follow-up.
