Abstract

India stands as one of the fastest developing countries in the world. It has entered quickly into an epidemiological transition leading to a 1 phenomenal increase in non-communicable diseases . Of them leading the way is coronary artery disease. 0 It has been estimated that 4 lakh 2 deaths a year are attributable to cardiovascular disease. The most common symptom in CAD is angina pectoris. The treatment for angina includes medical therapy and coronary revascularization by PTCA or CABG. However, a large number of these patients are not suitable to the usual procedures due to unfavorable coronary anatomy, repeated revascularization attempts, elderly age group, associated comorbidities and patient's preference.
