Drug-Eluting Stents for Treatment of Peripheral Artery Disease

Abstract: Endovascular intervention is a mainstay treatment of peripheral artery disease (PAD) in addition to aggressive risk factor modification and exercise programs in patients with favorable anatomy or in those who are considered too high risk for surgical intervention. Treatment with percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) and bare metal stents (BMS) has been limited by high rates of in-stent restenosis (ISR) requiring repeat revascularization. Drug-eluting stents (DES), developed and designed to reduce ISR, of… Show more

“…Although the technology has not been applied in the venous system [8] , there is no doubt about its potential in treating venous diseases in the future. As endovascular restenosis can also be caused by peripheral blood thrombus formation, a heparincoated stent may be worth exploring as well [47,68] .…”

“…In view of the limitations of the existing stents, a variety of self-expanding nitinol stents for the venous system have been developed, which would provide the best balance between strength, flexibility, and deployment precision [12] . Compared with Wallstents, self-expanding nitinol stents exhibit multiple advantages such as a shortened operation time, good flexibility, and great resistance [32,68] . In patients with symptomatic chronic iliac vein compression and a selfexpanding nitinol stent for endovascular treatment, most of them achieved a good patency rate and clinical improvement [22] .…”

“…The different treatment approaches include percutaneous transluminal angioplasty or the use of bare metal stents, drug-eluting stents or drug-eluting balloons. Drug-eluting stents show improved results [2,3]. Also the effectiveness of the use of drug-coated balloons has been shown, targeting a decreased cell proliferation, for example, in the treatment of femoropopliteal occlusive disease [4].…”

“…The introduction of Zilver PTX (Cook Medical, Bloomington, IN, USA), a non-polymer-based paclitaxel-coated nitinol stent, represented a significant clinical innovation for endovascular therapies a decade ago, leading to improved patency rates and reduced rates of target lesion revascularisation (TLR) as compared to those with bare metal stents (BMS) and drug-coated balloons, respectively [ 1 , 2 ].…”
