ABSTRACT
The occurrence of coronary artery disease increases with age. As a result, it is the most common cause of death in the elderly. Comorbidities and atypical nature of symptoms cause frequent underestimation of reported complains. Therefore, they are diagnosed and treated for coronary artery disease with delay. The choice of the best method of treatment in this group of patients is also difficult. It results among others from the fact that the number of randomized studies involving elderly patients is limited.
