Initial Experience with the Cragg Endopro System 1 for Intraluminal Treatment of Peripheral Vascular Disease

Abstract

The Cragg Endopro System 1 appears to be effective as an "internal bypass" for iliac and femoropopliteal occlusive disease. More complications and restenosis were seen in femoropopliteal implantations; however, a change in postoperative medication may improve these results. Long-term results will determine if the Cragg Endopro System 1 can achieve a patency equal to conventional bypass grafting.
