Wow, amazing! What wonderful skills and such detailed maneuvering! Thank you!

Very good explanation. I also had a stent placed last year. My stent was placed in a section with branch and some blood flows across the stent wall (not from one end to another) to the branch. I wonder if it is a normal practice to do this way because if the junction is clogged (the stent wall is "sealed:"), there seems nothing that can be done in future (you can't cut a hole on the stent).

The stent was deployed in proximity to the hip joint. Are you concerned about kinking of the stent with motion of the hip joint?

[Wishsimplerlife]

why use a Viabhan covered stent? Wouldn't a simple self expanding stent like Protege or Lifestent work?

[baharkulaada]

It is already necessary to move away from aorto-femoral shunts, otherwise there are a lot of complications

Dear brothers and sisters I can understand that you have lot of love for your old age parents. But, if they are not ready for any kind of surgery don't compelled them. Allow them to die peacefully in their home by meeting with their near and dear in place of giving death to them in operation theatre in fear and lonely condition. My mother wants to take her last breath in house but I taken chance of surgery and I lost her😔
