This randomised trial compared the Micro Stent I and the Palmaz-Schatz stent for the elective treatment of short (F8 mm long), new-onset coronary stenoses. The primary endpoints were restenosis rate and minimal luminal diameter at 6 mo angiographic follow-up. The secondary endpoints were angiographi

A case of chronic vertebrobasilar insufficiency due to severe stenoses at the origins of both vertebral arteries was treated with percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and coronary Palmaz-Schatz stents. Use of stents led to a better angiographic result than angloplasty alone. The patient Is improved
Recent studies have shown that stents may have a potential role in the treatment of thrombus-containing lesions. We report on the application of an autologous vein graft-coated stent (AVGCS) as the primary therapeutic modality for acute myocardial infarction in 10 patients. AVGCS delivery and deploy
