THE EFFECT OF STATIN ON PATIENTS WITH AORTO-ILIAC ARTERY DISEASE AFTER PRIMARY STENTING

Methods: The REAL-AI (REtrospective multicenter AnaLysis of primary stenting for AortoIliac artery disease) registry was performed as a multicenter registry in Japan enrolling consecutive patients undergoing primary stenting for de novo aortoiliac artery stenosis. The primary endpoint was a composite of death/myocardial infarction (MI) /stroke, and the secondary endpoints were primary patency (deined as treated vessel without restenosis).
