Over a seventeen-month period, a percutaneous transluminal removal of stenosing plaque material from leg and pelvic arteries was performed successfully and without complication in 43 patients. A complete atherectomy in the femoropopliteal vessels succeeded in 99% of cases. In the pelvic region, the primary results were much lower (58%). After six months, the angiographically checked restenosis rate was 17% for femoropopliteal vessels and 11% for iliac arteries, and the corresponding Kaplan-Meier cumulative patency rates were 73.8 and 78.7% respectively. Simpson's atherectomy is the only method of its kind that is therapeutically effective and diagnostically significant, since the removed plaque can be used for further tests.
在17个月的时间里，对43例患者成功实施了经皮腔内清除腿部和盆腔动脉狭窄斑块物质的手术，且无一例出现并发症。股腘血管的完全斑块旋切术在99%的病例中取得成功。在盆腔区域，主要结果要低得多（58%）。6个月后，经血管造影检查，股腘血管的再狭窄率为17%，髂动脉为11%，相应的Kaplan-Meier累积通畅率分别为73.8%和78.7%。辛普森斑块旋切术是同类方法中唯一具有治疗效果和诊断意义的方法，因为切除的斑块可用于进一步检测。
