PEB treatment of femoropopliteal arterial disease resulted in consistent clinical improvement across multiple endpoints with a low rate of stenting and target lesion revascularization.
Paclitaxel-coated balloons are associated with favorable functional and clinical outcomes at 1 year in patients with long femoropopliteal artery disease requiring percutaneous revascularization. (Drug Eluting Balloon [DEB] and Long Lesions of Superficial Femoral Artery [SFA] Ischemic Vascular Disease [DEB-SFA-LONG]; NCT01658540).
PEBs are associated with favorable functional and clinical outcomes at 2 years in patients with femoropopliteal artery disease requiring percutaneous revascularization.
PCBs benefits on primary patency and target vessel revascularization satisfactorily extend over 24 months in patients undergoing percutaneous transluminal angioplasty for symptomatic femoropopliteal disease.
Our data suggest that percutaneous dilation and stenting of the carotid arteries protected by cerebral protection devices is feasible and effective. In a consecutive series, the use of the cerebral protection systems reduced the acute neurological event rate related to embolic complications by 79%.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
