Does iliac artery stent placement relieve claudication in patients with iliac and superficial femoral artery lesions?
Intermittent claudication was relieved by iliac stent placement in most patients with both iliac and SFA lesions. Thus, the indications for treatment of the SFA intended for claudicants should be evaluated after treatment of the iliac lesion.
Anabolic agents targeting the Wnt signaling pathway are a promising new alternative for the prevention of periprosthetic osteolysis and aseptic loosening.
