An increased risk of mortality and morbidity is associated with untreated coronary artery disease. The main aim of therapy in patients with chronic stable angina is to alleviate symptoms, delay the progression of atherosclerosis, reduce the incidence of adverse coronary events and improve prognosis. This may be achieved with either initial<unk>  therapy or with initial revascularization that includes percutaneous coronary intervention or coronary artery bypass grafting.<unk>  therapy alleviates symptom and improves prognosis; however, on the contrary, revascularization procedures provide symptomatic relief but generally does not improve mortality.
