Abstract:
Objective To evaluate and compare the therapeutic results of subclavian artery angioplasty and stenting in patients with aortoarerteritis and atherosclerosis. Methods 13 cases (9 males and 4 females; age, 28-69 years) of subclavian artery stenotic occlusive disease were performed with PTA and stent. Results Six patients had aortoarerteritis, 7 had atherosclerosis lesions. Twelve of 13 stenoses could be successfully angioplasty ( n =6) and stenting ( n =6) . The one failure was due to the inability to cross the lesion with the guidewrie. Compared with atherosclerosis, higher balloon inflation pressure was required to dilate the lesions of aortoarerteritis. 12 patients were asymptomatic after PTA and stent implatation. Patients were follow up for 3-24 months and clinical examination demonstrated patency of the vessels with PTA and stents. Conclusion Subclavian PTA and stent implatation is safe and good clinical result as in aortoarerteritis as in atherosclerosis.
