Clearly identifiable intraoperative landmarks render the placement of intraoperative stents difficult. Preoperative use of quantitative digital angiography helps the surgeon accurately insert endovascular stents intraoperatively. By using defined points of reference, we were able to carefully select the size and lengths of stents before the operation and precisely place these stents in the operating room. Furthermore, we have been able to redilate these stents using the same techniques at subsequent operations. Our results reflect the efficacy of this technique.
