Drug-Eluting Balloon in Peripheral Intervention for the Superficial Femoral Artery
نویسنده
چکیده
Methods A total of 104 patients (110 FPA lesions in 110 limbs) were randomly assigned to either PEB þ BMS or PTA þ BMS. The primary endpoint was 12-month binary restenosis. Secondary endpoints were freedom from target lesion revascularization and major amputation. Post hoc subanalyses were performed for the comparison of long ( 100 mm) versus short lesions and true lumen versus subintimal approach.

The management of patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) largely depends on symptom status and disease location. Those symptomatic for lower limb atherosclerotic disease are often offered revascularization if medical therapy does not suffice in ameliorating such symptoms. Despite the inherent advantages of surgical revascularization, endovascular therapy appeals many patients given the l...

Percutaneous intervention for peripheral artery disease has evolved from balloon angioplasty for simple focal lesions to multimodality techniques that enable treatment of severe arterial insufficiency. This technological expansion comes without a standard approach or algorithm, which makes the decision-making process more subjective than objective. Nevertheless, clinical tools are available tha...

Initial randomized trials demonstrated a benefit of nitinol self-expanding stent placement in this region when compared to standalone balloon angioplasty (1). However, observational studies subsequently raised concerns r...

متن کاملEmerging Stent and Balloon Technologies in the Femoropopliteal Arteries
Endovascular procedures for the management of the superficial femoral (SFA) and popliteal artery disease are increasingly common. Over the past decade, several stent technologies have been established which may offer new options for improved clinical outcomes. This paper reviews the current evidence for SFA and popliteal artery angioplasty and stenting, with a focus on randomized trials and reg...
