“…Whether pre-dilation of a stenotic segment, prior to self-expanding stent deployment, is a risk factor is debatable (9, 10). Covered stents by inhibiting neo-intimal growth through the stent struts prevent stent incorporation into the vessel wall, which may facilitate migration (6). Among operator errors, the most common reason for stent migration in one study was under-sizing of stents followed by dislodgement while inflating a balloon or balloon rupture when balloon expandable stents were used (3, 4).…”
