Endovascular surgery has experimented a great development in the last years owing to the technologic advances in fields as mechanical and Laser recanalization technics, low profile catheters, Stents and diagnostic image. In a review work we discuss the role of this therapeutic modality in the treatment of vascular disease. To the vascular surgeon it becomes essential to be prepared to perform this procedures; to the general practitioner it becomes important to know about endovascular surgery potentialities. We discuss historical and technical aspects as also two important and polemic subjects in endovascular interventions: recanalization technics and stents. The authors personal experience, which is the first in Portugal in the fields of laser recanalization technics and stents placements, has been presented in several meetings and here is illustrated with one of our cases.
由于机械和激光再通技术、薄型导管、支架及诊断成像等领域的技术进步，血管内手术在过去几年取得了巨大发展。在一项综述工作中，我们讨论了这种治疗方式在血管疾病治疗中的作用。对于血管外科医生而言，做好实施此类手术的准备至关重要；对于全科医生来说，了解血管内手术的潜力也很重要。我们讨论了历史和技术方面，以及血管内介入治疗中的两个重要且有争议的主题：再通技术和支架。作者的个人经验是葡萄牙在激光再通技术和支架置入领域的首例，已在多次会议上展示，此处用我们的一个病例进行说明。
