2011 ACCF/AHA/SCAI Guidelines for Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (DO NOT EDIT)[1]

Revascularization to Improve Survival in Left Main Coronary Artery Disease (DO NOT EDIT)[1]

Class I
"1. CABG to improve survival is recommended for patients with significant (≥50% diameter stenosis) left main coronary artery stenosis (Level of Evidence: B)"
Class III (Harm)

"1. PCI to improve survival should not be performed in stable patients with significant (greater than or equal to 50% diameter stenosis) unprotected left main CAD who have unfavorable anatomy for PCI and who are good candidates for CABG. [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] (Level of Evidence: B)"

Class IIa

"1. PCI to improve survival is reasonable as an alternative to CABG in selected stable patients with significant (greater than or equal to 50% diameter stenosis) unprotected left main CAD with:

a. Anatomic conditions associated with a low risk of PCI procedural complications and a high likelihood of good long-term outcome (e.g., a low SYNTAX score [lower than or equal to 22], ostial or trunk left main CAD); and (Level of Evidence: B)
b. Clinical characteristics that predict a significantly increased risk of adverse surgical outcomes (e.g., Society of Thoracic Surgeons–predicted risk of operative mortality 5%). [2][3][4][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29] (Level of Evidence: B)"

"2. PCI to improve survival is reasonable in patients with UA/NSTEMI when an unprotected left main coronary artery is the culprit lesion and the patient is not a candidate for CABG. [4][18][30][20][21][26][27][28][29][31] (Level of Evidence: B)"

"3. PCI to improve survival is reasonable in patients with acute STEMI when an unprotected left main coronary artery is the culprit lesion, distal coronary flow is less than TIMI (Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction) grade 3, and PCI can be performed more rapidly and safely than CABG. [15][32][33] (Level of Evidence: C)"

Class IIb

"1. PCI to improve survival may be reasonable as an alternative to CABG in selected stablepatients with significant (greater than or equal to 50% diameter stenosis) unprotected left main CAD with:

a. Anatomic conditions associated with a low to intermediate risk of PCI procedural complicationsand an intermediate to high likelihood of good long-term outcome (e.g., low-intermediateSYNTAX score of lower than 33, bifurcation left main CAD); and (Level of Evidence: B)
b. Clinical characteristics that predict an increased risk of adverse surgical outcomes (e.g., moderate-severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, disability from previous stroke, or previous cardiac surgery; Society of Thoracic Surgeons–predicted risk of operative mortality greater than 2%). [2][3][4][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][34] (Level of Evidence: B)"
