TCT-795 2-Year Outcome of Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS) Guided Iliac Vein Stenting

Impact of intravascular ultrasound-guided stenting on long-term clinical outcome: a meta-analysis of available studies comparing intravascular ultrasound-guided and angiographically guided stenting.

To date, only a few studies have compared the clinical efficacy of intracoronary ultrasound (IVUS)-guided to angiographically guided stenting. Furthermore, it is not yet known whether the lower restenosis rate shown with the former strategy would translate into a substantial clinical advantage. Therefore, the aim of the present investigation was to improve the level of evidence of these studies...

15-Year Patency and Life Expectancy After Primary Stenting Guided by Intravascular Ultrasound for Iliac Artery Lesions in Peripheral Arterial Disease.

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to evaluate 15-year patency and life expectancy after endovascular treatment (EVT) with primary stenting guided by intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) for iliac artery lesions. BACKGROUND Fifteen-year patency, factors causing restenosis, and survival after IVUS-guided EVT are unclear based on the TransAtlantic Inter-Society Consensus II (TASC-II) classific...
