Abstract:
Purpose:To assess the security and efficacy of mechanical recanalization and stenting of lilac arteries with complete occlusions without preceding thrombolytic therapy. Materials and methods:During a 3-year period,Eighteen consecutive patients underwent mechanical reeanalization and stenting for complete occlusion of the iliac artery.The method involved recanalizition with a guide wire and a catheter advanced as a while unit through the occluded segment(snowplow technique).Results The occluded segments were successfully traversed and dilated and 32 stents were placed in 18 patients.The mean ankle-brachial index (BAI)increased from 0.39?0.33 before the procedure to 0.86?0.13 after the procedure(P
