Abstract
Armed with an improved understanding of the mediators of angiogenesis, physicians and scientists have made significant efforts at harnessing this naturally occurring process in order to treat patients with a variety of peripheral vascular and coronary ischemic syndromes. There is a growing population of patients with end-stage coronary artery disease (CAD) who are no longer candidates for mechanical revascularization, yet suffer from chronic myocardial ischemia who may benefit from regeneration of the depleted microvasculature.Entities:
