Long-term (three years) effect of estrogen replacement therapy on major adverse cardiac events in postmenopausal women after intracoronary stenting.

This study examined whether estrogen replacement therapy (ERT) in postmenopausal women impacts intermediate and long-term outcome after successful coronary stenting. Our findings offer evidence that ERT significantly reduces target lesion revascularization after intracoronary stenting in postmenopausal patients who are on ERT before the intervention.
