“…In a recent review, it was shown that the indications for treatment with kissing stents varied greatly, from 33% to 100% of patients treated for claudication. 20 In the present study 36.9% of the patients were treated for critical limb ischemia. In addition, the incidence of TASC A and B lesions treated with kissing stents varied from 0% to 92%, rendering comparisons unfair with the present group of patients, who were mostly treated for TASC-II D lesions.…”

“…1,2 The long-term outcome, however, has not matched that of open surgery due to a high rate of reinterventions to assure stent patency. 36 Data published on the results of KS treatment usually include relatively low sample sizes (mean 63.2, range 18–215), 7 owing to the low prevalence of AIOD. Not only do these sample sizes hamper longer term analysis, but the heterogeneity of included patient groups reduces the comparability with respect to open surgery, though it does provide an opportunity for subgroup analysis.…”

“…Aortoiliac disease is a major cause of claudication and/or critical limb ischemia, with a prevalence up to 10% in the general population, increasing up to 20% in patients aged over 70 ( 1 ).…”

“…Nevertheless, OS is associated with higher per-surgical complications and mortality than the EV technique ( 1 ). Thus, several EV options have been developed to treat even high-grade lesions, especially in elderly and fragile patients.…”
