Therapeutic effect of endovascular stenting on TIA caused by vascular stenosis / 心血管康复医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore therapeutic effect and safety of endovascular stenting on transient ischemic attack (TIA) caused by atherosclerotic vascular stenosis .Methods:A total of 100 patients with TIA caused by vascular ste-nosis in our hospital from Jan 2011 to Feb 2013 were enrolled ,and equally divided into combined treatment group (received endovascular stenting combined medication ) and routine treatment group (received medication treat-ment) .After 12-month treatment ,recurrence rate of TIA ,incidence rate of stroke and vascular stenosis rate before and after treatment were compared between two groups .Results:Compared with before treatment ,there was no significant change in all above-stated indexes after treatment in routine treatment group;were significant reduction in vascular restenosis rate [ (73.31 ± 12.76)% vs .(25.01 ± 5.73)% ] in combined treatment group ,and it signifi-cantly reduced than that of routine treatment group (74.33 ± 12.96)% ,P<0.01 both ;during the 12-month follow-up ,compared with routine treatment group , there were significant reductions in percentages of recurrent TIA (16.0% vs .2.0% ) and cerebral stroke (12.0% vs .0) in combined treatment group ,P<0.05 both Conclusion:En-dovascular stenting can significantly improve clinical therapeutic effect and prognosis in patients with atherosclerotic vascular stenosis ,and is worth clinical extension in some condition .
