A well-mastered technique will cause percutaneous transluminal angioplasty of iliac arteries to achieve long-term results comparable to those obtained surgically. In isolated iliac stenosis, a 95% good result rate is attained (81% cured, 14% improved). More complex cases of iliac stenosis yield 90% good results (72% cure), with a mean Doppler ankle/arm pressure index gain of 0.5 point in a series including 673 patients at 5 years follow-up. Only the presence of combined distal femoral lesions may cause the good result score to drop to 85%, including merely 35% cure. General complications are practically lacking and local complications are minimal, which incites one to propose this technique as a first-line treatment of iliac stenosis whenever distal blood circulation is maintained. |
