Modified drug-eluting balloon angioplasty to treat high-risk carotid in-stent restenosis

Abstract

Carotid artery stenting is commonly used to treat carotid artery stenosis. However, carotid in-stent restenosis remains a challenging problem. Herein, we report a difficult case of recurrent severe carotid in-stent restenosis with total contralateral internal carotid artery occlusion treated with repeat drug-eluting balloon inflations. The outcome after one year of follow-up showed a good result.
