Abstract
|
|
|
The iliac and femoral arterial segments are the most common sites of atherosclerotic stenoocclusive lesions. As a less invasive treatment, endovascular therapy for these arterial segments has been widely accepted as a treatment of choice in selected patients. The long-term patency rate after endovascular treatment using angioplasty and/or stent for the iliac artery lesions was similar to those of surgical bypass. However, the results of femoral artery are still challenging. In this article, the indications, techniques and results of endovascular therapy for iliofemoral steno-occlusive lesions will be reviewed.
