Endovaskulär rekonstruktion av en artär, vilket kan innebära avlägsnande av ateromatösa plack och/eller endotelhinnor, samt enkel vidgning. Detta förfarande med kateterteknik skall skiljas från endart erektomi, som är kirurgisk rekonstruktion.
Reconstruction or repair of a blood vessel, which includes the widening of a pathological narrowing of an artery or vein by the removal of atheromatous plaque material and/or the endothelial lining as well, or by dilatation (BALLOON ANGIOPLASTY) to compress an ATHEROMA. Except for ENDARTERECTOMY, usually these procedures are performed via catheterization as minimally invasive ENDOVASCULAR PROCEDURES.
