A Review of Superficial Femoral Artery Angioplasty and Stenting
نویسندگان
چکیده
Introduction: Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) of the superficial femoral artery (SFA) is the most common cause of intermittent claudication. Several endovascular treatment options exist; the most frequent are angioplasty or angioplasty with stent placement. The aim of this review is to clarify the role of angioplasty alone vs. angioplasty with

Sustained Benefit at 2 Years of Primary Femoropopliteal Stenting Compared With Balloon Angioplasty With Optional Stenting
Background—Primary stenting with self-expanding nitinol stents of the superficial femoral artery yielded improved morphological and clinical results compared with balloon angioplasty with optional stenting until 12 months in a randomized controlled trial. We now report 2-year data on restenosis and clinical outcomes of these patients. Methods and Results—Of 104 patients with chronic limb ischem...

BACKGROUND Atherosclerosis in the superficial femoral artery is common in patients suffering from peripheral artery disease. Paclitaxel-eluting balloon (PEB) angioplasty, stenting, and directional atherectomy (DA) have provided new options for the treatment of superficial femoral artery disease; however, the comparative efficacy of these interventional strategies remains uncertain. METHODS On...
متن کاملA comparative review of various interventional methods for coronary angiography and angioplasty
Background and Objective: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is one of the most common diseases today. Among the diagnostic methods, angiography is the main and gold standard in the diagnosis Since angiography is an invasive procedure, this procedure complications range widely from minor problems with short term sequelae to life threatening ones may cause irreversible damage or even death. Materials...

متن کاملThe ReeKross balloon catheter for Subintimal Angioplasty and Stenting of Occluded Superficial Femoral Arteries
Following the publication of the BASIL randomised control trial of bypass surgery versus angioplasty (SIA) of the superficial femoral artery (SFA) for critical leg ischaemia, it has become justified to attempt angioplasty as a first line therapy. As the results showed equivalence in terms of limb salvage, but lower cost and length of stay in favour of angioplasty, we now routinely opt for angio...
