The main purpose of this study is to observe the incidence of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE), target vessel failure (TVF), target vessel revascularization (TVR) and stent thrombosis out to 5 years after the procedure in patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with everolimus-eluting stents for unprotected left main coronary artery (ULMCA) disease and lesions involving the ULMCA in Japan. The investigators will also establish a method of adjustment to the Japanese version of the SYNTAX score by conducting an assessment using the SYNTAX score recently reported in the US and Europe as well as the EuroSCORE, and by clarifying the differences of PCI procedures and treatment results in Japan with those reported in the US and Europe.
