Wiktor-GX coil stents and Palmaz-Schatz 154A tubular stents were implanted in a consecutive series of 40 patients and 45 arteries undergoing successful primary stent placement in de novo lesions treated with single stents in order to compare the acute recoil of a coil stent to a tubular stent in nat

โฆ Synopsis
We report a patient in whom aorto-ostial stenting with a Palmaz-Schatz coronary stent was complicated by significant acute elastic recoil, despite appropriate positioning of the stent and full expansion of a high-pressure, postdilatation balloon. Superimposing a Palmaz biliary stent overcame the inward radial force of this lesion and achieved an adequate lumen.

The compromise of side-branches following coronary angioplasty of the parent vessel remains a limitation of the procedure. Reports of dilation through a Palmaz-Schatz stent to salvage a compromised side-branch covered by the stent have been made. We examined the distortion of stent geometry which oc
The Palmaz-Schatz stent delivery system (PS 153) and ''bare'' PS 204 stents are relatively high-profile, rigid devices that can be difficult to deliver to lesions beyond tortuous, irregular, or rigid proximal segments. Described herein is a method of mounting and shaping a Palmaz-Schatz stent on a l
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
