  Of 82 patients with medically refractory unstable angina pectoris seen between October 1972 and January 1978, 60 patients underwent a combination of intraaortic balloon pump counterpulsation, cardiac catheterization and coronary revascularization. Most patients had atherosclerotic involvement of the vessels of the anterior left ventricular wall, 48 patients (80 percent) had abnormalities of left ventricular wall contraction and 22 patients (36 percent) had evidence of acute myocardial injury. One operative and one late death occurred. The perioperative infarction rate was 5 percent. Survivors, followed up for 3 to 63 months (mean 31 months), have done remarkably well; 77 percent are considered employable,and more than 90 percent are in functional class I or II.
