Abstract
Randomized trials directly comparing angioplasty with bypass surgery for complex multivessel disease are under way. Preliminary results suggest that angioplasty can be effective in some patient groups, so that neither procedure will predominate. The early results also suggest criteria to guide physicians in selecting the most appropriate method for individual patients.
