Stenting has been shown to improve the safety and durability of angioplasty in every circulatory bed in which it has been applied. However, stenting of the intracranial arteries has been limited by the availability of stents that can be reliably deployed intracranially.\n          <\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>\n            <jats:italic>Methods<\/jats:italic>\n            \u2014Twelve patients underwent elective stenting of the basilar artery after episodes of vertebrobasilar ischemia. In all patients, either medical therapy had failed or the patient had a contraindication for long-term anticoagulation. Information from independent neurological examinations, quantitative angiography, and clinical follow-up was collected. Differences between pretreatment and posttreatment degree of stenoses were subjected to 1-way ANOVA for repeated measures.\n          <\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>\n            <jats:italic>Results<\/jats:italic>\n            \u2014There were 10 men and 2 women, all white, aged 40 to 82 years (mean age, 62.6 years). Stent placement was successful in all patients, leading to statistically significant changes in the degree of stenosis, from 71.4% (range, 53% to 90%) to 10.3% (range, 0% to 36%) (\n            <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n            &lt;0.0001). There were no deaths, stent thromboses, perforations, ruptures, or myocardial infarctions. Clinical follow-up was available for 0.5 to 16 months (mean, 5.9 months). One patient had nonspecific symptoms, and another had a transient ischemic attack. All other patients remained asymptomatic.\n          <\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>\n            <jats:italic>Conclusions<\/jats:italic>\n            \u2014Elective stenting of the basilar artery is feasible, with minimal risk to the patient. Its impact on long-term stroke prevention and its durability are unknown and will require further study.\n          <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1161\/01.str.31.1.95","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,6,17]],"date-time":"2011-06-17T20:08:03Z","timestamp":1308341283000},"page":"95-99","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1161\/crossmarkpolicy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":159,"title":["Elective Stenting of Symptomatic Basilar Artery Stenosis"],"prefix":"10.1161","volume":"31","author":[{"given":"Camilo R.","family":"Gomez","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Departments of Neurology (C.R.G., J.B.T., R.T., M.S.C.), Medicine (Cardiology) (V.K.M., M.W.L.), and Radiology (V.R.W.), University of Alabama at Birmingham."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Vijay K.","family":"Misra","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Departments of Neurology (C.R.G., J.B.T., R.T., M.S.C.), Medicine (Cardiology) (V.K.M., M.W.L.), and Radiology (V.R.W.), University of Alabama at Birmingham."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ming W.","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Departments of Neurology (C.R.G., J.B.T., R.T., M.S.C.), Medicine (Cardiology) (V.K.M., M.W.L.), and Radiology (V.R.W.), University of Alabama at Birmingham."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Van R.","family":"Wadlington","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Departments of Neurology (C.R.G., J.B.T., R.T., M.S.C.), Medicine (Cardiology) (V.K.M., M.W.L.), and Radiology (V.R.W.), University of Alabama at Birmingham."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"John B.","family":"Terry","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Departments of Neurology (C.R.G., J.B.T., R.T., M.S.C.), Medicine (Cardiology) (V.K.M., M.W.L.), and Radiology (V.R.W.), University of Alabama at Birmingham."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Roekchai","family":"Tulyapronchote","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Departments of Neurology (C.R.G., J.B.T., R.T., M.S.C.), Medicine (Cardiology) (V.K.M., M.W.L.), and Radiology (V.R.W.), University of Alabama at Birmingham."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Morgan S.","family":"Campbell","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Departments of Neurology (C.R.G., J.B.T., R.T., M.S.C.), Medicine (Cardiology) (V.K.M., M.W.L.), and Radiology (V.R.W.), University of Alabama at Birmingham."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_1_1_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/str.26.7.1200"},{"key":"e_1_3_1_2_2","first-page":"1661","volume":"18","year":"1997","unstructured":"Takis C, Kwan ES, Pessin MS, Jacobs DH, Caplan LR.
