Coronary plaque regression in an old female patient with moderate-intensity statin therapy
Coronary plaque regression is the target of treatment for coronary heart disease. Many medications have been used to prevent plaque progression. Statins are the most important drugs for lipid management, but they do not work well for many patients. This case reports a patient with plaque reversal under conventional treatment using moderate-intensity statins with untargeted lipid.
