Effect of stent shape in areas of high compression on patency rates after venous recanalization in patients with chronic venous obstruction
This study demonstrates that changes in stent shape are to be expected at points of high external pressure. However, as long as these changes do not lead to a severe reduction in stent lumen (<25% of stent area), they do not negatively impact patency rates.
