Placement of Ballon-Expandable Intraluminal Stent in Recurrent Iliac Artery Stenosis
|
|

Abstract
|
|
|
Backgroud:
@EN Despite general agrement as to the safety and immediate success of percutaneous iliac angioplasty, its long-term efficacy remains subject to debate and percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) induced issection in the iliac artery may also
lead
to urgent surgery although frequency of this complication is not clearly stated in the literature. The relatively early results with the use of the Palmaz balloong-expandable intraluminal stents (BEIS) for treating atherosclerotic ilizac artery
and
PTA-induced iliac artery dissectinons strongly suggest that Palmaz BEIS has its important role for limitations of PTA. It is generally accepted that indications for stent placement are (a) inadequate immediate postangioplasty response (b)
restenosis
after previous iliac ballooon angioplasty. and (c) total iliac artery occlusion.
@ES Methods:
@EN We report the successful implantation of Palmaz BEIS at right common iliac artery in a patient suffered from severe claudication. Previously the patient receivedPTA two times. First PTA resulted in intimal dissection and restenosis occurred
after
successful second Pta.
@ES Results.:
@EN After successful implantation of Palmaz BEIS. pressure gradients across the lesion and blood flow pattern were nearly normalized. The patient was discharged without symptom and wa sin good condition after 4 months follow-up.
@ES Conclusion:
@EN According to our this limited experience and other reports. stent placement is valuable adjunct in the management of iliac artery disease.
