Stent “Hygiene”

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, 2018
Key Points Studies demonstrate ideal Stent expansion with prolonged inflations. Longer inflations, a mediator of greater stent expansion, lower immediate, subacute, and late stent failure. Research should focus on components of stent deployment that optimize early and late stent outcomes.

Airway stenting

Chest Surgery Clinics of North America, 2001
Various airway pathologies may result in central airway obstruction. For patients who have benign and malignant disease, definitive surgical correction by tracheobronchial resection and reconstruction is preferred. Numerous patients, however, have unresectable airway lesions owing to the extent of disease or to medical or surgical contraindications ...

Intravascular Stents

Cardiology Clinics, 1989
Restenosis and/or acute closure continue to affect at least one third of all patients undergoing coronary angioplasty; pharmacologic and mechanical methods are therefore being developed to prevent this. The current information on intravascular stents is reviewed and the potential for this device to impact on acute closure and restenosis discussed.

Airway Stenting

Surgery Today, 2005
Interventional pulmonology, otherwise known as "airway stenting," has developed in the field of pulmonary medicine focused on using advanced bronchoscopic techniques to treat airway disorders. Tracheobronchial disorders can be caused by malignant or benign tumors, extrinsic compression, postintubation tracheal injuries, tracheobronchomalacia, or ...

Stents and Stenting

2010
Stents are typically placed to prevent or relieve ureteral obstruction caused by intrinsic or extrinsic etiologies. Stent design and biomaterials have improved in recent years from the first described double-J stent in 1978. The indications for placement of a ureteral stent include obstructing ureteral calculi, ureteral strictures, congenital anomalies

Direct stenting

European Heart Journal, 2003
Stents have ameliorated the outcome of percutaneous coronary interventions. Improved design, profile and flexibility of the currently available stents now permit to deliver the stent without pre-dilatation. In western European countries, stent implantation now occurs in up to 80% of all percutaneous revascularization procedures.

Gastrointestinal stenting

European Radiology, 2000
Acute obstructions of the gastric outlet, the duodenum, or the large bowel require rapid treatment to relieve symptoms of retention or ileus. Large-caliber stents of 16 to 22 mm offer a new non-surgical alternative for treating these patients with minimal risks and high success rates.

Stent in Stenting

2017
Stent occlusion remains a major problem in biliary stenting, and emergency treatment is required. Various second stents, such as plastic stent (PS), uncovered self-expanding metallic stent (SEMS), and covered SEMS, are selected considering primary inserted stent, causes of stent occlusion, and prognosis of the patients.

Airway Stents

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2008
Airway stenting has been well used in the treatment and palliation of patients with malignant stenoses and to a lesser extent in those with benign disease causing airway compromise. Stents are either constructed of silicone or metal, usually a nitinol, a nickel and titanium alloy. The different categories of stents have positive and negative attributes

Vascular stenting

Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology, 2002
An explosion of technology has occurred in the last 10 years, intended to make treatment of vascular diseases less invasive. Once the exclusive domain of the interventional cardiologist and the coronary circulation, now in 2001 nearly every vascular system has been explored as a site for endovascular treatment of aneurysmal and atherosclerotic disease.
