Yang HT, et al. - The efficacy and durability of stent graft placement after balloon angioplasty in comparison to balloon angioplasty alone for the treatment of graft outflow stenosis in hemodialysis patients were evaluated. It was noted that the use of stent grafts in hemodialysis patients with graft outflow stenosis yielded superior results compared with the results seen in hemodialysis patients treated with balloon angioplasty alone. A lower restenosis rate and a longer duration of postintervention primary patency were noted among patients treated with stent grafts after balloon angioplasty.
