Background
Cardiovascular disease is the most common cause of death among kidney transplant (KT) recipients. Trials routinely exclude patients with end-stage renal disease when assessing the effect of coronary artery revascularization.

Hypothesis: We seek to compare long term outcomes in patients who underwent PCI prior to KT as compared to those who did not need PCI.
Methods: We identif...
