Long-segment arterial occlusion: percutaneous transluminal angioplasty.
In cases of occlusion of the superficial femoral artery exceeding a length of 10 cm, accompanied by involvement of the popliteal artery and poor runoff, percutaneous transluminal angioplasty is unfavorable. However, when such advanced occlusive disease is present in patients for whom vascular surgery is not feasible, this technique can be of value by averting or at least postponing amputation. ...
متن کاملCilostazol reduces target lesion revascularization after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty in the femoropopliteal artery.
BACKGROUND Although percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) is being widely used for the treatment of stenosis of peripheral arteries, the high in-stent restenosis rate (50-60%) in the femoropopliteal artery still remains an unsolved issue. Cilostazol is a unique antiplatelet drug that has vasodilatory effects and inhibits smooth muscle cell proliferation. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 1...
متن کاملPathological findings after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty.
Ten serial pathological cross sections at 1 mm intervals of both the left anterior descending artery at the site of a percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty and of the circumflex artery in the untreated stenotic area were studied at necropsy in a patient who died immediately after the procedure. The extent of calcification and atheroma were similar in both branches. Intimal or medial sp...
متن کاملAcute complications of percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty for total occlusion.
The incidence of major complications after percutaneous coronary angioplasty (PTCA) of a totally occluded artery was assessed retrospectively. A total of 1649 PTCA procedures were analyzed. After exclusion of procedures for acute myocardial infarction or total occlusion that resulted from restenosis, 90 patients were selected. Forty-four patients (49%) had stable angina and 46 (51%) had unstabl...
متن کاملPercutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty.
Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) is a nonoperative mechanical dilatation of atherosclerotic coronary artery stenosis by a balloon-tipped dilating catheter system. This method can effectively reduce highly stenotic coronary lesions and provide early recovery of ischemic but viable myocardium. The technique of transluminal angioplasty was originally devised by Dotter and Judk...
