ангиопластија
A minimally invasive procedure whereby a balloon dilatation catheter is passed through to the blocked area of an artery. Once inflated, the catheter compresses the plaque against the blood vessel wall, re-establishing blood flow. An angioplasty can also be performed with a stent or atherectomy. Also called percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty, or PTCA.
