Background and study aims Pancreatic fluid collection (PFC) is a common complication of pancreatitis for which endoscopic ultrasound-guided drainage is first-line treatment. A new single-device, lumen-apposing, covered self-expanding metal stent (LAMS) has been licensed for PFC drainage. We therefore present our multicenter experience with the LAMS for PFC drainage in a multicenter prospective...
AIMS The aim of this study was to investigate the physiologic parameters: fractional flow reserve (FFR), hyperaemic trans-stent gradient (HTG), and wall shear stress (WSS) at implantation and at 6-month follow-up in the drug-eluting sirolimus stent and in its bare metal counterpart implanted in pairs within the same patient. METHODS AND RESULTS Twenty patients, accepted for percutaneous coron...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Stent placement may be an effective and last resort method for recanalization of recalcitrant intracranial artery occlusion. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a self-expanding stent for the recanalization of acute embolic or dissecting intracranial artery occlusion. MATERIALS AND METHODS Nine patients (mean age, 66 years; NIHSS score, ...
A patient presented with exertional chest pain two months prior to admission. Coronary angiography revealed a subocclusive stenosis within the boundaries of the stent. Optical coherence tomography showed remarkable intimal growth inside the stent, which demonstrated a heterogeneous appearance including low-intensity areas. These findings were congruent with the morphology of fibroatheroma in th...
Biliary stents are widely used not only for palliative treatment of malignant biliary obstruction but also for benign biliary diseases. Each plastic stent or self-expandable metal stent (SEMS) has its own advantages, and a proper stent should be selected carefully for individual condition. To compensate and overcome several drawbacks of SEMS, functional self-expandable metal stent (FSEMS) has b...
Thirty patients with incurable malignant obstruction of the oesophagus and cardia were treated with self expanding oesophageal memory metal stents (Ultraflex) in a prospective study. The endoprostheses were successfully placed in all patients. Within one week after implantation dysphagia had improved in 25 of 30 patients (83%). Stent expansion was incomplete within one week after implantation i...
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to determine the mechanisms and predictors of carotid artery restenosis after carotid artery stenting (CAS) using serial intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) imaging. BACKGROUND Carotid artery stenting is increasingly used to treat high-grade obstructive carotid disease, but our knowledge of carotid in-stent restenosis and remodeling remains limited. METHODS ...
CONTEXT Although drug-eluting stents reduce restenosis rates relative to bare-metal stents, concerns have been raised that drug-eluting stents may also be associated with an increased risk of stent thrombosis. Our study focused on the effect of stent type on population-based interventional outcomes. OBJECTIVE To compare outcomes of Medicare beneficiaries who underwent nonemergent coronary ste...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Malignant gastric outlet obstruction can be treated by means of enteral stenting or surgical gastrojejunalanatomosis. We evaluated in a prospective and multicentre study the efficacy of the enteral stent on food intake, the quality of life impact, and the relationship between efficacy and determined clinical and technical parameters. PATIENTS AND METHODS Seventy one patien...
BACKGROUND Neointimal hyperplasia plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of in-stent restenosis in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions. Drug-eluting balloons are a promising tool to prevent restenosis after coronary angioplasty. Moreover, an increased knowledge of the pathophysiology of restenosis my help improve therapeutic strategies. METHODS/DESIGN We present the desi...
