- Abstract:
- In 42 patients with symptomatic chronic iliac artery occlusions with a length of 2-15 cm (mean 4.3 cm), percutaneous recanalization was attempted. The study population was divided into 2 groups: Group I (n = 17) is a retrospective control group, the patients were treated with fibrinolysis (FL) and percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA). In group II (n = 25) the patients were treated according to a prospective protocol including FL, PTA and placement of endovascular self-expandable stents. The recanalization rate for Group I and II together was 83% (35/42). FL was effective in 47%, in 53% the recanalization was performed mechanically only. The patency rate in Group I during a maximum of 69 months was 67%, in Group II, in which residual stenoses were treated with stents, 100% during max. 18 months. Obviously stents help to improve the results after percutaneous recanalization of iliac artery occlusions significantly.
