Pending core lab confirmation (rates may
decrease) Zilver PTX Registry did not include
stent X-rays at 24-month follow-up
Integrity data for the Zilver stent platform are
also available for 96 stents implanted in the
femoropopliteal arteries (above, behind and below
the knee) of 34 patients, with a mean follow-up
of 2.4 years, showing a 1 fracture rate (1/96,
stents). Ferriera, et al., Eur J Vasc Endovasc

13Safety Event-free Survival
- Event-free survival defined as freedom from
- Death, amputation (toe, foot, or leg)
- Revascularization
- Clinically driven re-intervention for gt 50 DS
within treated segment (including 5 mm) - Surgical bypass of target vessel
- Worsening of Rutherford Classification
- (by two classes or to a Class 5 or 6)

20Conclusions
- The Zilver stent platform appears to have
excellent durability (i.e., fracture resistance)
in the SFA - Results through 2 years with the Zilver PTX
stent show - No safety concerns apparent
- Favorable effectiveness (TLR rates, clinical
outcomes, comparison to literature)
