2014, Cardiovascular Revascularization MedicineCitation Excerpt :ELCA in SVG-PCI has been studied in a number of registries. Data from the original laser registry showed that distal embolization occurred in only 18/546 (3.3%) of SVG stenoses treated [12]. Prospective data from the CORAL multi-centre registry compared 98 patients who underwent SVG-ELCA, where DPD delivery was not possible, with the SAFER (Saphenous Vein Graft Angioplasty Free of Emboli) control group.
