Stent-graft treatment of extracranial carotid and vertebral arterial lesions JOURNAL OF VASCULAR AND INTERVENTIONAL RADIOLOGY Saket, R. R., Razavi, M. K., Sze, D. Y., Frisoli, J. K., Kee, S. T., Dake, M. D. 2004; 15 (10): 1151-1156

Abstract

Five patients with pseudoaneurysms of the carotid artery (n = 4) and an arteriovenous fistula of the vertebral artery (n = 1) were treated with stent-grafts. Commercially made devices were used in all but one of the patients. In four of the five patients, the pathology was successfully excluded. One patient had a small type-I endoleak. There were no immediate procedure-related complications or neurologic sequalae. All experienced immediate resolution of symptoms. One patient was lost to follow-up after discharge and another died 2 weeks after intervention. The remaining patients remained asymptomatic with patent stent-grafts after follow-up periods of 14, 16, and 46 months, respectively.
