Expansion of Wiktor stents by oversizing versus high-pressure dilatation: A randomized, intracoronary ultrasound–controlled study

Two strategies to achieve optimal expansion of Wiktor stents in coronary arteries, oversizing at normal balloon pressures (group 1) and high-pressure dilatation (group 2), were compared. We randomly assigned 20 symptomatic patients with de novo coronary artery stenoses of
