Vascular endoprostheses for femoro-popliteal occlusive disease

Abstract

A self-expanding vascular endoprothesis (wall stent) was implanted in 26 patients with femoro-popliteal occlusive disease following recurrent stenosis or occlusion after percutaneous angioplasty. Implantation was successful in all cases and there were no complications. Five of the 26 patients developped a thrombosis in the first nine days; in four of these, thrombolysis was successful. Patency rate after one month was 96%, after three months 95%, after six months 85% and after nine months 87%. In order to prevent thrombosis after implantation, anticoagulant therapy is indicated. Poor distal flow encourages intimal hyperplasia and therefore recurrences.
