Myocardial injury in COVID-19. What are the structural abnormalities found?
RV dysfunction 26%
LV dysfunction 18%

PCI versus CABG in radiation induced CAD
After stratification for valve intervention, CABG associated with better long term survival than PCI.
Also lower MACE & repeat revasc compared to PCI.
