Abstract
A high technical success rate (97%) and low complication rate were observed. Exercise performance and health-related QOL results improved significantly after stent placement. Revascularization with stent placement should be strongly considered in addition to conservative management for moderate to severe claudication with aortoiliac obstruction. A randomized clinical trial would be needed to gauge the relative effectiveness of stent implantation and conservative therapy.
