Outcome of Drug-Eluting Stenting for Intracranial Stenoses
Conclusions
This study shows that DES placement for symptomatic atherosclerotic stenoses of the intracranial VBA and VAO appears feasible and safe. Also, it has an acceptable long-term outcome and may be considered as an alternative to medical therapy. Further study of a larger patient population in a randomized controlled trial is required to validate this treatment option.
