RESUMO
Restenosis after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty remains a problem, which suggests that we still do not fully understand its mechanisms. We review here the current understanding of the cell biology of restenosis, including clinical correlation (risk factors), randomized clinical trials, human histology, animal models, and in vitro studies.
