Abstract:
Objective To rvaluate the therapeutic efficacy of balloon-dilatation covered stents in the treatment of renal artery stenosis(RAS).Methods The clinical data of 30 patients with RAS,who received intravascular ultrasonography(IVUS)-guided LifeStream balloon-dilatation covered stent implantation at the Affiliated Central Hospital of Dalian University of Technology(Dalian Municipal Central Hospital)of China from August 2022 to December 2023,were retrospectively analyzed.The various parameters of the lumen and the stent were measured,and the performance of the stent was evaluated.Results The minimum original blood vessel diameter below the base of the stenotic segment plaque was 5.40(5.17,5.80)mm and the maximum blood vessel diameter was 6.20(5.80,6.93)mm,which became 6.00(5.80,6.00)mm and 7.90(6.00,8.00)mm respectively after stent release,the differences were statistically significant(both P<0.05).Before stent release the luminal eccentricity index was(14.72±9.37)%,which was(1.54±9.16)%after stent release,the difference was statistically significant P<0.05).The instant stent symmetry after stent release was(82.69±14.61)%,and the stent expansion factor was(99.81±10.70)%.Ideal narrow coverage rate was obtained.During operation,poor stent adhesion occurred in 2 patients and renal artery rupture with bleeding occurred in one patient,which were solved after immediate re-expansion treatment.Spearman's correlation analysis showed that stent symmetry,stent expansion factor,and stent eccentricity index did not linearly correlate with the lumen cross-sectional area stenosis rate and the plaque eccentricity index(all P>0.05).Conclusion For the treatment of RAS,the LifeStream balloon-dilatation covered stent is clinically safe,feasible,and effective with satisfactory immediate clinical outcomes.
