Abstract

The Synergy Between Percutaneous Coronary Intervention with Taxus and Cardiac Surgery (SYNTAX) score (SS) has significantly improved angiographic risk stratification. By analyzing angiographic variables, this score characterizes coronary artery disease qualitatively and quantitatively. To date, combining this score with other non-angiographic clinical scores has broadened perspectives regarding risk estimation, and future research on this topic appears promising.
