Stent Fracture and Occlusion after Treatment of Symptomatic Vertebral Artery Ostium Stenosis with a Self-Expanding Device

Abstract: Endovascular stenting with a balloon expandable device is currently the preferred treatment modality for symptomatic proximal vertebral artery stenosis, but high rates of in-stent restenosis remain a major problem, for which stent fracture might be a contributing factor. Limited reports showed that placement of self-expanding stents in the proximal vertebral artery might reduce restenosis; no stent fracture has been reported to date. We describe here a new case of fracture and occlusion of a self-expa… Show more

“…Factors previously shown to contribute to ISR include age, diabetes mellitus, smoking, hyperlipidemia, small diameter stent (≤4 mm), longer stent length, tortuous V1 segment, long stenosis (>10 mm), contralateral VA hypoplasia, and contralateral VA occlusion at the time of stenting [ 17 , 25 34 ]. The VAO has a high elastin concentration, which may increase the risk of stent recoil, kinking, and deformation, and contribute to ISR [ 35 , 36 ].…”

“…Although VA ostium stenting is considered to be a safe treatment option, high rates of restenosis and delayed stent fractures remained [32] , [33] , [34] , [35] , [36] . Using of drug eluting stents decrease neointimal hyperplasia related in-stent restenosis in VA.…”

“…Balloon-expandable stents are commonly used as the treatment modality for symptomatic artery stenosis [2][3][4]. Self-expanding stents have enhanced radial expanding force, which are higher resistive force and greater flexibility compared to balloon-expandable [20]. Although both stents have excellent long-term patency with good clinical outcomes, occlusion and/or stent compression of balloon-expandable stents are more probable during endovascular treatment of the iliac arteries [2][3][4].…”
