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
The management of high-grade stenosis involving the petrosal segment of the internal carotid artery has been limited to angioplasty alone in the past. However, if angioplasty fails or has less than optimum results, then endovascular stent placement should be considered. We present the first two know
To evaluate the clinical efficacy of endoluminal stenting in the setting of percutaneous intervention for small coronary artery lesions, we reviewed our results on stenting with the 2.5-mm GFX stent (Arterial Vascular Engineering, Santa Rosa, CA) during an 18-month study period. A total of 120 patie
A 69yrsld man had chronic transient Ischemia attacks due to severe stenosis of the lntracranial portion of the right carotid artery. After failure of both antlpiateiet and anticoagulant therapy, treatment was successful wlth percutaneous translumlnal angioplasty and a coronary Paimaz-Schatz stent. U
