Treatment of Ischemic Heart Disease
There are different treatment plans. Your doctor will decide the appropriate plan for you, depending on the nature and extent of your disease and factors such as your age and presence of other diseases, if any. In general there are three different modes of treatment:

This procedure is accomplished with a small balloon catheter inserted into an artery in the groin or arm, and advanced to the narrowing in the coronary artery. The balloon is then inflated to enlarged the narrowing in the artery. When successful, PTCA can relieve chest pain of angina and minimize or stop a heart attack without having the patient undergo open–heart Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) surgery.
