Intravascular stents to prevent occlusion and restenosis after transluminal angioplasty.

New England Journal of Medicine, 1987
Occlusion and restenosis are the most common reasons that transluminal balloon angioplasty may fail to provide long-term benefit. An intravascular mechanical support was therefore developed with the aim of preventing restenosis and sudden closure of ...

Stenting the stent: Alternative strategy for treating in‐stent restenosis

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Diagnosis, 1996
Several approaches have been taken to relieve restenosis inside a vascular stent. In a patient with a complicated history of coronary artery disease, a restenotic lesion inside a Gianturco-Roubin flex stent was relieved by angioplasty and deployment of three 10 mm Palmaz P-104 "biliary" stents, with urokinase and verapamil used to prevent ...

Ureteral Stenting or No Stenting

2012
It has been a popular and accepted surgical tradition to place a ureteral stent after performing ureteroscopy especially when performing lithotripsy for ureteral calculi. The rationale for this surgical custom is based on historical animal models, which demonstrated ureteral obstruction after ureteral dilation as well as anecdotal evidence that ...

Ureteral Stents: To Stent or Not to Stent, That Is a Great Question! [PDF]

open access: possible, 2014
Some stones will move from the kidney and lodge within the ureter causing a blockage, referred to as ureteral obstruction. The back up of urine that ensues will cause the kidney to swell, known as hydronephrosis. This hydronephrosis may translate in significant flank pain, which can eventually bring a patient to the ER.

Endoscopic aqueductoplasty: stent or not to stent?

Child's Nervous System, 2004
The aim of this study is to evaluate if the long-term interventricular communication following aqueductoplasty is determined by the etiology of the aqueductal stenosis (AS).We retrospectively analyzed 27 patients who underwent endoscopic aqueductoplasty or endoscopic interventriculostomy with or without a stent for the treatment of AS or isolated ...

Stents nus, Stents habillés

Bulletin de l'Académie Nationale de Médecine, 2005
By making safe the act and decreasing the restenosis risk, the stent had contributed to the development of coronary artery angioplasty which fill nowadays the whole of clinical and coronarographical field of coronary artery disease. The new stent, coated with substances amenable to minimise the best the restenosis risk, holds the hope of the ...

Three vs twelve months of dual antiplatelet therapy after zotarolimus-eluting stents: the OPTIMIZE randomized trial.

Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 2013
IMPORTANCE The current recommendation is for at least 12 months of dual antiplatelet therapy after implantation of a drug-eluting stent. However, the optimal duration of dual antiplatelet therapy with specific types of drug-eluting stents remains unknown.

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.

Stenting Versus No Stenting

2004
Many one-stage repairs for hypospadias have been developed in the past 25 years. The complication rate has remained stable at approximately 10% despite the use of optical magnification, fine instruments, meti culous haemostasis and broad-spectrum antibiotics (Mitchell and Kulb 1986).
