Determinants of Periprocedural Myocardial Infarction in Current Elective Percutaneous Coronary Interventions.

In conclusion, the lesion length, lesion angle ≥ 45°, and Medina classification (0,1,1) / (1,1,1) were significantly associated with PMI in contemporary elective PCI. Preventing flow limitation in both side branches and main vessels in elective PCI for the diffuse long, angulated, or true bifurcation lesions is important.
