Effect of drug-coated balloons in treatment of stenosis of the femoral artery and vein bypass graft not responding to plain old balloon angioplasty: a case report

Abstract Background The use of drug-coated balloons (DCBs) with anti-proliferative agents in treating femoropopliteal lesions was approved in Japan in 2017. A better limb salvage rate or amputation-free rate of DCBs relative to plain old balloon angioplasty (POBA) has been reported; however, there i...

description Abstract Background The use of drug-coated balloons (DCBs) with anti-proliferative agents in treating femoropopliteal lesions was approved in Japan in 2017. A better limb salvage rate or amputation-free rate of DCBs relative to plain old balloon angioplasty (POBA) has been reported; however, there is little evidence of the direct effect on intimal hyperplasia (IH). Case presentation A 70-year-old man with chronic limb-threatening ischemia and foot gangrene had undergone bypass surgery from the left common femoral artery to the dorsalis pedis artery 2 years earlier. We evaluated the bypass graft using ultrasonography and found stenosis around the proximal anastomotic site, presumably due to IH. POBA was performed every 3 months due to the repeated re-stenosis of the lesion. Since using the DCB, no restenosis has been detected to date (10 months). Conclusion DCB might be an effective tool for treating re-stenosis due to IH or vein grafts that do not respond to POBA.
