RESUMO
Preliminary clinical experience of Xenon-chloride excimer laser coronary angioplasty has show it to be a safe and an effective means of non-surgical coronary revascularization in selected group of patients. We are reporting an application of laser excimer angioplasty in four patients with significant coronary artery disease. Two patients had left anterior descending artery disease. The first, a long proximal segmental lesion and the second, subtotal obstruction of the left anterior descending artery. The third and fourth patients had occluded circumflex and right coronary artery respectively. All patients underwent successful excimer laser angioplasty procedures assisted by subsequent balloon dilation. All had successful outcome with no mortality or significant morbidity
