ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The Supera (Abbott Vascular, Santa Clara, CA) stent is an interwoven nitinol, shape-memory stent with high strength and flexibility characteristics which are purported to increase resistance to kinking and compression. The purpose of this study was to review single-center outcomes of the use of this stent in the femoropopliteal segment.METHODS:
We performed a single-center, retrospective analysis of patients who underwent Supera stent placement for femoropopliteal occlusive disease from 2016-2019. Data was collected on patient demographics and procedural details. Follow-up imaging data, including duplex imaging and ankle-brachial indices, and clinical data were abstracted from encounter notes.RESULTS:
Sixty-two patients with 72 unique Supera stent placements were identified. Mean age was 76 and 69% were male. 56% of patients had severe calcification and 11% had moderate calcification. 48% of lesions were Trans-Atlantic Inter-Society Consensus Document C or D lesions. Primary patency rates at 12, 24, and 36 months were 85%, 82%, and 75%, respectively. Primary patency was not affected significantly by lesion length, degree of calcification, number of outflow vessels, concomitant interventions, or stent size.CONCLUSIONS:
These results demonstrate sustained primary patency with the Supera stent over a 3-year interval in treatment of patients with femoropopliteal occlusive disease, including in the setting of severely calcified vessels.
