To determine the histomorphometric correlate of neointimal hyperplasia with arterial remodeling during arterial repair after balloon angioplasty of atherogenic vessels, intimal, medial, and lumen areas of swine iliac artery were assessed in atherogenic vessels 1, 3, 8, 14, 30, and 90 days after angioplasty. Quantitative histomorphometric analysis of iliac arteries was performed with hematoxylin eosin(HE) and Elastic-von Gieson staining. Arterial cross-sectional areas were quantified- Angioplasty often fractured the intimal plaque and media, and...
