Duplex ultrasound criteria for in-stent restenosis of mesenteric arteries

Abstract Objective Duplex ultrasound (DUS) criteria are well defined for evaluating high-grade stenosis (≥70%) of the native superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and celiac artery (CA). It has been shown that native vessel criteria overestimate the degree of in-stent restenosis (ISR) and that velocity c...

Zusammenfassung:Abstract Objective Duplex ultrasound (DUS) criteria are well defined for evaluating high-grade stenosis (≥70%) of the native superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and celiac artery (CA). It has been shown that native vessel criteria overestimate the degree of in-stent restenosis (ISR) and that velocity criteria for SMA and CA ISR are not well established. The objective of this study was to define DUS velocity criteria for high-grade ISR of the SMA and CA. Methods A retrospective review of all patients who underwent SMA or CA stenting from a single institution was performed from 2004 to 2013. Patients were excluded if they did not have a DUS examination
