Arterial perforation (by balloon) during subintimal angioplasty.
Perforation complicates 3–4% of angioplasties and can be treated by temporary balloon occlusion, coil embolisation, placement of a covered stent or redissection past the perforation using the subintimal angioplasty technique. Our unit has generally been reluctant to place covered stents in the infra-inguinal region, largely because of concerns about in-stent restenosis. Most perforations occurr...
متن کاملSubintimal Angioplasty in the Treatment of Chronic Lower Limb Ischemia
OBJECTIVE To present our experience with subintimal angioplasty (SA) for treatment of chronic lower limb ischemia (CLLI) and to assess its effectiveness and durability. MATERIALS AND METHODS From April 2003 through June 2005, we treated 40 limbs in 36 patients with CLLI by SA. Balloons with or without secondary stent placement appropriate in size to the occluded arteries were used for SA of a...
متن کاملSubintimal Angioplasty for the Management of Chronic Total Occlusions
C hronic total occlusions of the femoropopliteal segments or infrapopliteal vessels are encountered more frequently with increasing patient longevity, bringing critical limb ischemia (CLI) to greater clinical attention. Surgical revascularization has been well documented for achieving limb salvage; however, the morbidity and mortality rate in this patient cohort can be significant.1 Endovascula...
متن کاملThe ReeKross balloon catheter for Subintimal Angioplasty and Stenting of Occluded Superficial Femoral Arteries
Following the publication of the BASIL randomised control trial of bypass surgery versus angioplasty (SIA) of the superficial femoral artery (SFA) for critical leg ischaemia, it has become justified to attempt angioplasty as a first line therapy. As the results showed equivalence in terms of limb salvage, but lower cost and length of stay in favour of angioplasty, we now routinely opt for angio...
متن کاملSubintimal Angioplasty in the Treatment of Critical Lower Extremity Ischemia: Is Above-Knee Bypass Defunct?
he treatment of lower extremity arterial ischemia is rapidly changing as new technologies are brought to bear on the age-old problem of the ischemic leg. Endovascular treatments are blossoming everywhere as conventional open surgical bypass loses favor. The influx of the nonsurgical specialist in the treatment of peripheral vascular disease further enhances this drift away from conventional sur...
