Ангиопластика баллонными катетерами с лекарственным покрытием при заболеваниях артерий нижних конечностей

Abstract

The prevalence of peripheral arterial disease requires the search for an optimal solution for preserving blood flow by using devices of various modifications. Drug-coated balloons are widely used in the surgical treatment of peripheral arterial disease. The article aims at the summarization of the study results on the efficacy and safety of the various drug-coated balloons, in particular, with paclitaxel, in the treatment of steno-occlusive lesions in the peripheral arterial disease. Comparing the study results is fraught with certain difficulties, given the differences in the study endpoints, the demographic characteristics of patients and the lesion patterns. Nevertheless, the study results of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) with drug-eluting ballons on the femoropopliteal segment are superior to the results obtained using conventional PTA and other endovascular interventions in the same vascular bed. PTA with drug-eluting balloons has a Class 1 recommendation in accordance with the issued recommendations of the SCAI (Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions). However, conducting PTA with paclitaxel-eluting balloons requires further determination of the possibilities of its use.
