Impact of chronic outward force on arterial responses of proximal and distal of long superficial femoral artery stent

Abstract Background Self-expanding nitinol stent (SENS) implantation is commonly oversized in the superficial femoral artery (SFA), and leads to chronic outward force (COF) and in-stent restenosis (ISR). This study aimed to investigate the impact of COF of oversizing SENS on ISR of SFA. Methods In p...
