1646 JUNE 16, 1962 THROMBO-ENDARTERECTOMY as much as they should. If it is right that when we give treatment and fail we should constantly review our methods and our skills, it is also true that when we avoid the responsibility of intervention we should be reminded of the results of our inactivity. We can be sure that there will be deaths from surgical treatment but that these will diminish when patients are given a chance earlier, before all the large coronary arteries are extensively involved. Coronary angiography is likely to play an important part in the selection of such patients. If the history of anticoagulant therapy forms any sort of a parallel it will be a very long time before there is conclusive statistical support for surgical treatment. In the meantime it is important that patients should be considered for one or other form of treatment on the basis of the fullest possible investigation so that as numbers do become available they can be useful in statistical surveys.
