Healing characteristics of intraarterial stent grafts in an injured artery model.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Endovascular therapy (EVT) is being adopted by many surgeons as a suitable first choice in the treatment of most femoropopliteal disease when clinically indicated. However, there are multiple factors affecting the outcome of EVT including the anatomy of lesions and distal runoff status. The evidence of runof...
