Balloon angioplasty versus stenting with nitinol stents in intermediate length superficial femoral artery lesions

Abstract: In this randomized multicenter trial, primary stenting with a self-expanding nitinol stent for treatment of intermediate length SFA disease resulted morphologically and clinically superior midterm results compared with balloon angioplasty with optional secondary stenting.

“…Stenting also may have a role in the treatment of anatomically complex lesions (eccentric calcified plaques, long-segment stenosis, and CTO) [6]. Although balloon angioplasty with provisional stent placement remains the standard of endovascular care, primary nitinol stent placement in the femoropopliteal arteries may reduce vessel restenosis and thereby decrease the need for repeat procedures in the mid-term according to several recent randomized, controlled trials [11,[51][52][53]. Nonetheless, primary stent placement in the femoropopliteal arteries remains controversial according to recent meta-analyses [54,55].…”

“…In 73 subjects with mean 8 cm length femoral lesion, restenosis rates in the PTA plus stenting and PTA alone groups were 2.9% vs. 18.9%, 18.2% vs. 50.0%, and 34.4% vs. 61.1% at 3, 6, and 12 months as detected by duplex scan [39]. Perrio & colleagues [40] declared that 1 year femoral artery 1ry patency rates were 57% in PTA plus stenting group versus 53% in PTA alone group.…”

“…The appearance of self-expandable stents has facilitated improved patency of femoropopliteal (FP) lesions [12][13][14][15] , but a decrease in patency due to restenosis in the chronic phase remains a major limitation of EVT 16) . Moreover, the influence of beta-blockers on the patency after FP stenting has not been examined.…”
