Classification and Clinical Impact of Restenosis After Femoropopliteal Stenting Studied
January 3, 2012—In the Journal of the American College of Cardiology, Atsushi Tosaka, MD, et al published findings from a study that sought to investigate the relationship between angiographic patterns of in-stent restenosis (ISR) after femoropopliteal stenting and the frequency of refractory ISR (2012;59:16–23). The background of the study is that ISR after femoropopliteal stenting is an unresolved problem and that the incidence and predictors of refractory restenosis remain unclear.
