Risk factors for restenosis after carotid artery angioplasty and stenting.
OBJECTIVES With carotid artery stenting (CAS) becoming an ever-increasing procedure, we sought to determine risk factors for in-stent restenosis after CAS. METHODS Consecutive patients undergoing CAS between January 2002 and October 2004 at a tertiary care hospital were retrospectively reviewed. Patient, filter, and stent selection were left to the discretion of the attending surgeon. High-ri...
متن کاملClinical trials of restenosis after coronary angioplasty.
Since its introduction more than 10 years ago, coronary angioplasty has been limited by a 30-40% incidence of restenosis, typically developing within 3-6 months of the procedure.12 The interactive biological processes responsible for re-stenosis have generally been attributed to varying degrees of three pathological mechanisms. First, depending on the relative fibrocellular, sclerotic, and calc...
متن کاملPreventing restenosis after angioplasty: a multistage approach.
Arterial reconstruction procedures, including balloon angioplasty, stenting and coronary artery bypass, are used to restore blood flow in atherosclerotic arteries. Restenosis of these arteries has remained a major limitation of the application of these procedures, especially in the case of balloon angioplasty. Post-angioplasty restenosis results from two major processes: neointimal formation an...
متن کاملPlasma homocysteine and restenosis after femoropopliteal angioplasty.
PURPOSE To assess the relationship between plasma homocysteine levels and restenosis after femoropopliteal percutaneous transluminal angioplasty. METHODS Over a 10-month period, 128 consecutive, symptomatic patients (72 men; median age 70 years) having successful femoropopliteal angioplasty for atherosclerotic occlusive disease were prospectively enrolled in the study. Plasma homocysteine lev...
متن کاملBalloon angioplasty for pulmonary artery stenosis after lung transplantation.
We report here a successful case of balloon angioplasty for a stenosis of the pulmonary artery after lung transplantation. A 49-year-old patient with end stage diffuse bronchiectasis with sinusitis underwent bilateral living donor lobar lung transplantation. After treatment of postoperative right pneumothorax, a perfusion lung scan revealed deficient perfusion in the left lung. Pulmonary angiog...
