Stent malapposition may promote atheroprone hemodynamics after carotid stenting; leaves open clinical relevance for thromboembolic events.
Computational modeling demonstrates that stent malapposition in carotid artery stenting creates abnormal shear forces and atheroprone regions that could trigger thromboembolic events.
Santis et al. (2011) studied this question.
