Abstract
Tissue hyperplasia is one of the most frequently encountered complications when self-expanding metallic stents are placed in benign non-vascular luminal organ strictures, thus causing restenosis of the lumen. The investigators postulated that ionizing irradiation could be applied to prevent restenosis caused by tissue hyperplasia in non-vascular luminal organs as it reduced coronary or peripheral arterial narrowing successfully. The authors combined $\beta$-irradiation using $^{188}Re-MAG_3$ solution with balloon dilation for animal and clinical studies because this new treatment approach had the advantages such as low penetration depth of $\beta$-ray, self-centering irradiation, and mechanical effect of balloon dilation over using $\gamma$-irradiation with afterloading devices in this article, the concept and mechanism of radioisotope balloon dilation, and animal and clinical studies using radioisotope balloon dilation are reviewed.
