Official title
A Prospective Randomized Comparison of Prosthetic Femoropopliteal Bypass Versus Viabahn Endoprosthesis for Treatment of Symptomatic Superficial Femoral Artery Occlusion
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This study is a comparison of two different ways to treat blockage in the artery of the thigh. The first is an older way with incisions in the groin and just above the knee. A plastic tube is then inserted to make a bypass from the groin to the knee. The second treatment offered is through a needle hole in the groin. A thin plastic tube covering a metal stent is inserted into the artery and released to bypass the blockage from inside the artery. No incisions are needed. Patients are enrolled and then selected for one treatment method or another by chance. The patients will be followed for two years to see how the two different treatment methods work compared to each other.
