Pathophysiological mechanisms of restenosis after carotid artery stenting / 国际脑血管病杂志

ABSTRACT

Carotid artery stenting is one of the main methods for the treatment of carotid artery stenosis.However,as a severe complication after stenting,restenosis has restricted its clinical application to a certain extent.At present,the pathogenesis of restenosis after stenting is not very clear.More and more studies have shown that it may be associated with vascular endothelial injury,platelet aggregation,and inflammatory response.This article reviews the pathophysiological mechanisms of restenosis alter stenting.
