Key result
Unprotected left main stenting yields 100% procedural success with 4.5% 30-day mortality.
Why the study?
The feasibility, safety, and prognostic outcomes of stenting in patients with significant unprotected left main coronary artery disease in real-world clinical practice were not well established.
Observational (n=309)

Supports real-world ULMCA stenting feasibility in mixed presentations; leaves open comparative long-term outcomes versus CABG.
Lee et al. (2014) conducted an observational in Unprotected left main coronary artery (ULMCA) disease (n=309). Coronary stenting was evaluated on Procedural success (safety and efficacy). Catheter-based left main coronary stenting demonstrated a 100% procedural success rate and a 30-day mortality rate of 4.5% in patients with unprotected left main coronary artery disease.
