| description | Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) of the aorto-iliac arteries was performed in 92 patients with atherosclerotic lesions. The initial success was 87.8% and the late one was 69.4%. The late results were evaluated objectively in 58 patients, 36 of which were studied by angiography and the remaining by Doppler. There were 6.6% of complications, in 2.8% of which surgery was performed. There was no mortality. The good initial and late results and the low morbility suggest that PTA is a good revascularization procedure. The best results were obtained in symptomatic patients with a short and significant stenosis or occlusion. |
