title: [Endoluminal angioplasty, in situ thrombolysis and arterial endoprosthesis. Immediate and long-term results (2 to 8 years): report of 5,216 operations].
abstract: Over a period of 8 years, 5,216 percutaneous transluminal angioplasties (PTA) and local thrombolysis were performed in the Department of Radiology of the University of Freiburg and the Hochrheinklinik of Bad Säckingen. From 1984 to 1989, 5,216 patients were reviewed clinically, and, in 360 cases, angiographically. The short-term results were compared with the long term results (i.e. 2 to 8 years after PTA or local lysis). The (stage IIb to stage IV) occlusive disease was treated by PTA. A successful PTA result was obtained in stage IIb in 73% of cases, in stage III in 68% of cases and, in stage IV in 36% of cases after 2-8 years including all regions of treated arteries. Complications occurred in 2.51% of cases. Over the last 2 years, dilatations, local thrombolysis and even intraluminal stent implantations can be controlled by ultrathin angioendoscopes.
