Abstract:
Objective To evaluate short and medium term therapeutic effects of VIABAHN-covered stent in treat-ment of arteriosclerosis obliterans in lower extremity. Methods Among all 53 cases of arteriosclerosis obliterans in lower extremity with C/D TASC levels, 22 patients underwent VIABAHN-covered stent (stent group), while the other 31 patients were treated with femoral-popliteal artery bypass grafting surgery (graft group). The arterial patency rates were analyzed 3 and 6 months after the two different surgeries. Results The number of arterial patency cases were 28 (90.3%) at 3 months and 26 (83.9%) at 6 months in stent group while it is 22 (100%) at 3 months and 21 (95.5%) at 6 months in graft group. There were no significant differences in the arterial patency rate at 3 months and 6 months between the two different surger-ies (χ2 is 0.808 and 0.760 respectively, P>0.05). Conclusion VIABAHN-covered stent can be used as the preferred treat-ment for arteriosclerosis obliterans of lower extremity.
