  • Abstract

    Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has emerged as a reasonable alternative to coronary artery bypass graft surgery in well-selected patients with unprotected left main coronary disease (LMCD). We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis with the aim of assessing the impact of sex on outcomes of PCI in patients with unprotected LMCD.
