Significance of hemodynamic assessment by pressure wire for endovascular therapy of subclavian steal syndrome.

CONCLUSION: The trans-stenosis pressure difference is closely related to steal degree and clinical symptoms. The measurement of hemodynamic status by pressure wire is very useful to guide endovascular therapy in subclavian steal syndrome patients. However, the restenosis may still occur, even though the hemodynamic impairment is improved. PMID: 31969074 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
