Why is it important?
CORONARY ARTERIES TAPERS GRADUALLY FROM PROXIMAL TO DISTALLY . HENCE WHEN WE ARE DOING ANGIOPLASTY TO DIFFUSE LESIONS Tapered stents are useful. Tapered stents available of variable lengths and diameter. lengths from 30 mm to 60 mm. diameter 3.5 to 3.0 mm, 3.0 to 2.5mm and 2.75 to 2.25 mm
Perspectives
personally I have used more than 400 tapered stents in VARIOUS ANGIOPLASTY PROCEDURES DONE FROM LAST 4 YEARS. usage of long tapered stents reduce the no. of stents and in turn reduce the cost of the procedure.
