Zusammenfassung:Objectives To assess the safety and efficacy of fractional flow reserve (FFR) guided paclitaxel‐coated balloon (PCB) treatment for de novo coronary artery lesions. Background: There is limited data on PCB treatment for de novo lesions especially of major epicardial coronary arteries. Methods Sixty‐six patients with 67 de novo lesions who underwent successful plain old balloon angioplasty (POBA) were included. If POBA‐FFR was favorable (≥ 0.85), PCB was applied and if POBA‐FFR was
