Extracorporeal cardiac shock wave therapy ameliorates clinical symptoms and improves regional myocardial blood flow in a patient with severe coronary artery disease and refractory angina.

Ключевые слова оттуда (выделено мной):
a 51-year-old female with CAD and refractory angina pectoris despite maximally tolerated medical therapy and after both percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). The patient received cardiac shock wave therapy (CSWT) over a period of 6 month.
Our case report suggests that ultrasound-guided CSWT is able to improve symptoms and perfusion in ischemic myocardium which is beyond mechanical revascularization. However, a controlled trial is needed to define the role of CSWT in the armamentarium for these challenging patients.
