The main drawback of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and stenting (PTAS) was the relatively high rate of the combined primary end point of stroke or death within 30 days of enrollment or after revascularization of the target artery at any time during follow-up, or an ischemic stroke in the territory of the target artery at any time during follow-up.
