Abstract
Catheter balloon angioplasty is a well accepted form of nonsurgical tr eatment of acutely and chronically obstructed coronary artery vessels. It is also the centerpiece for various new intervention techniques. T heir morphologic effects on the site of obstruction has been termed '' remodeling.'' Part III of this six-part series focuses on intimal prol iferation and chronic recoil in patients undergoing previous remodelin g techniques by balloon angioplasty.
