Event Description

Medtronic received a journal article reporting 'in-stent restenosis and stented-territory infarction after carotid and vertebrobasilar artery stenting¿.Between september 2013 and may 2021, 363 patients who had undergone 417 stent insertions were included (stenting at more than two arteries: 53 patients) in the study.A total of 324 (77.7%) patients underwent cas and 93 (22.3%) underwent vbs.Stenting procedures was performed by neuro-interventionists who were highly experienced in endovascular treatment.The use of catheters, guidewires, and ballooning dilatation was at the discretion of the neuro-interventionist.Non-medtronic stents were used for intracranial stenting.Protégé rx and other non-medtronic stents were used for extracranial stenting.All patients were followed up with computed tomography angiography (cta) and carotid duplex ultrasonography (cdu) within 48hours after the procedure.After discharge, all patients were followed up with cta and cdu at 1month after the procedure.After that, patients were followed up with cta, cdu, magnetic resonance angiography (mra), or dsa examination at 6months after the procedure at the discretion of the stroke neurologist.Thereafter, follow-up neuroimaging was performed every 12 months.The main outcomes were in-stent restenosis and stented-territory infarction.Restenosis higher than 50% of the residual stenosis just after stent insertion at any period during follow-up was considered as in-stent restenosis, regardless of the neuroimaging modality used.Stented-territory infarction was defined as stented-territory ischemic stroke on diffusion-weighted imaging or transient ischemic attack (tia), associated with the stented artery.For clinical outcomes, in-stent restenosis was observed in 34 (8.2%) stent insertion cases and stented-territory infarction was observed in 56 (13.4%) stent insertion cases during 3 years of follow-up.
