The "kissing balloon" technique has been recommended for percutaneous transluminal angioplasty of common iliac stenoses located at or near the aortic bifurcation, because of the theoretical risk of contralateral embolization or stenosis if a single balloon is used. A single-balloon technique was used to dilate 20 atherosclerotic stenoses at this site in 19 patients. Technical success was achieved in 18. No complications occurred. Follow-up studies at intervals ranging from three to 51 months showed a patency rate similar to that achieved with the kissing balloon method. We believe that the use of kissing balloons is unnecessary since single-balloon angioplasty is safe and effective.
“亲吻球囊”技术已被推荐用于治疗位于主动脉分叉处或其附近的髂总动脉狭窄的经皮腔内血管成形术，因为如果使用单个球囊，理论上存在对侧栓塞或狭窄的风险。采用单球囊技术对19例患者的该部位20处动脉粥样硬化狭窄进行扩张。18例获得技术成功。未发生并发症。随访3至51个月，显示通畅率与“亲吻球囊”法相似。我们认为，由于单球囊血管成形术安全有效，因此无需使用亲吻球囊。
