Histologic insights into post-angioplasty remodeling remain hypothesis-generating; leaves open targeted strategies for clinical translation.
Catheter balloon angioplasty is a well accepted form of nonsurgical treatment of acutely and chronically obstructed coronary artery vessels. It is also the centerpiece for various new intervention techniques. Their morphologic effects on the site of obstruction has been termed "remodeling." Part III of this six-part series focuses on intimal proliferation and chronic recoil in patients undergoing previous remodeling techniques by balloon angioplasty.

Waller et al. (1996) conducted a review in Acutely and chronically obstructed coronary artery vessels. Catheter balloon angioplasty was evaluated. This review focuses on the histologic findings of intimal proliferation and chronic recoil in patients undergoing coronary artery remodeling techniques by balloon angioplasty.
