Percutaneous Coronary Interventions

Definition

"Percutaneous Coronary Interventions" are procedures or treatments that involve inserting a thin, flexible tube (catheter) through the skin and into a blood vessel to repair a blockage.

These techniques are used to treat cardiovascular disease and relieve narrowing in the blood vessels that supply blood to the heart muscle. Examples include percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) and coronary stenting.
