Femoropopliteal (FP) artery in-stent restenosis (ISR) is associated with high rates of re-intervention and occlusion. The combined use of laser atherectomy (LA) with balloon angioplasty (BA) is superior to conventional balloon angioplasty (BA). Drug-coated balloons (DCBs) when combined with LA have provided additional efficacy for the treatment of FP-ISR. The aim of this study was to investigate the combination of DCB + LA with the recently approved Turbo-Power™ (Spectranetics Inc., Colorado Springs, CO, USA) LA device.
This was a dual-center retrospective study enrolling 78 consecutive patients with Tosaka type II (n = 18) or III (n = 60) FP-ISR. The lesions were treated with either Turbo-Power™ LA followed by DCB (n = 27) or with other LA devices followed by plain BA (LA + BA; n = 51) from 2015 to 2017. A Cox regression analysis was performed to examine the association between the two groups in terms of target lesion revascularization (TLR) and occlusion rates over a follow up period of 12 months. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were estimated and compared with the log-rank test.
The overall procedural success was 90%. Eight periprocedural complications occurred without any difference between the two groups (Turbo-Power™ + DCB: 7.4% vs LA + BA: 11.8%, p = .7). The 12-month KM estimates for freedom from TLR were 90.9% in the Turbo-Power™ + DCB group vs 55.7% in the LA + BA group (p = .005). Among Toasaka III lesions, the 12 m-KM survival estimates for freedom from TLR were 88.9% in the Turbo-Power™ + DCB group vs 54.2% in the LA + BA group (p = .009). The 12 m-KM estimates for freedom from re-occlusion were 89.0% in the Turbo-Power™ + DCB group vs 58.9% in the LA + BA group (p = .070).
Turbo-Power™ laser atherectomy combined with DCB exerted synergistic mechanism of actions and improved 12-month TLR rates for the treatment of complex FP-ISR lesions.
股浅动脉(FP)支架内再狭窄(ISR)与高再介入和闭塞率相关。激光动脉切除术(LA)联合球囊血管成形术(BA)的联合应用优于传统的球囊血管成形术(BA)。当与 LA 联合使用时,药物涂层球囊(DCB)为治疗 FP-ISR 提供了额外的疗效。本研究的目的是研究最近批准的 Turbo-Power ™(Spectranetics Inc.,科罗拉多斯普林斯,CO,美国)LA 装置与 DCB+LA 的联合应用。
这是一项回顾性的双中心研究,共纳入 78 例 Tosaka Ⅱ型(n=18)或Ⅲ型(n=60)FP-ISR 连续患者。这些病变分别采用 Turbo-Power ™ LA 联合 DCB(n=27)或其他 LA 装置联合普通 BA(LA+BA;n=51)进行治疗,治疗时间为 2015 年至 2017 年。采用 Cox 回归分析,比较两组患者在 12 个月随访期间靶病变血运重建(TLR)和闭塞率的相关性。通过 Kaplan-Meier 生存曲线估计,并采用对数秩检验进行比较。
总体手术成功率为 90%。两组间无明显差异(Turbo-Power ™+DCB:7.4% vs LA+BA:11.8%,p=0.7)。在 Turbo-Power ™+DCB 组中,12 个月时 TLR 无事件生存率为 90.9%,在 LA+BA 组中为 55.7%(p=0.005)。在 Tosaka Ⅲ型病变中,在 Turbo-Power ™+DCB 组中,12 个月时 TLR 无事件生存率为 88.9%,在 LA+BA 组中为 54.2%(p=0.009)。在 Turbo-Power ™+DCB 组中,12 个月时无再闭塞事件生存率为 89.0%,在 LA+BA 组中为 58.9%(p=0.070)。
Turbo-Power ™激光动脉切除术联合 DCB 发挥了协同作用,提高了治疗复杂 FP-ISR 病变的 12 个月 TLR 率。
