Successful complex bifurcation stenting of a native SFA after failed femoropopliteal bypass grafting.

Full Abstract

Endovascular treatments are becoming more beneficial in the treatment of complex peripheral arterial disease. We report a novel case of using a y-stenting technique at 2 bifurcation sites in the femoropopliteal region, to revascularize a long native SFA occlusion after failed femoropopliteal bypass grafting.
