Abstract
Background critical limb ischemia is one of the most challenging cases we face nowadays with high risk for amputation, retrograde trans-pedal angioplasty offers an alternative technique after failure of traditional ante-grade angioplasty. Patients and Methods 96 patients underwent trans-pedal or trans-tibial retrograde angioplasty after failure of the traditional ante-grade angioplasty with the aid of US, 21-gauge needle and 0.018 wire through sheath-less approach as a last chance for revascularization. Results clinical success or improvement in 77 cases (80.2%), and in other 19 cases (19.8%) there was no clinical success or improvement. The technical success was achieved in 81 cases with percentage of (84.4%), and not achieved in 15 cases (15.6%) only. Conclusions Retrograde Trans-pedal angioplasty is an efficient, safe, and practical procedure with a high technical success and a relatively minimal procedural adverse effect. retrograde trans-pedal angioplasty offers an alternative technique after failure of traditional ante-grade angioplasty. Retrograde Trans-pedal angioplasty is an efficient, safe, and practical procedure

Abstract
Calcified lesions in below-the-elbow (BTE) arteries are common in patients with diabetes or end-stage renal disease and can lead to critical hand ischemia (CHI). Treatment of calcified lesions with atherectomy has proved useful in the lower extremities, however, atherectomy in the upper extremities and especially BTE, is not typically considered due to the small vessel size. We review and discuss these studies along with other CHI-related articles and also present a case of a severely calcified ulnar artery lesion treated with orbital atherectomy and plain Chocolate balloon angioplasty.

LumenRECON Guidewire: Pilot Study of a Novel, Nonimaging Technology for Accurate Vessel Sizing and Delivery of Therapy in Femoropopliteal Disease. Circ Cardiovasc Interv 2018; 11:e005333. [PMID: 29311285 DOI: 10.1161/circinterventions.117.005333] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/24/2017] [Accepted: 12/07/2017] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Proper vessel sizing during endovascular interventions is crucial to avoid adverse procedural and clinical outcomes. LumenRECON (LR) is a novel, nonimaging, 0.035-inch wire-based technology that uses the physics-based principle of Ohm's law to provide a simple, real-time luminal size while also providing a platform for therapy delivery. This study evaluated the accuracy, reliability, and safety of the LR system in patients presenting for a femoropopliteal artery intervention. METHODS AND RESULTS This multicenter, prospective pilot study of 24 patients presenting for peripheral intervention compared LR measurements of femoropopliteal artery size to angiographic visual estimation, duplex ultrasound, quantitative angiography, and intravascular ultrasound. The primary effectiveness and safety end point was comparison against core laboratory adjudicated intravascular ultrasound values and major adverse events, respectively. Additional preclinical studies were also performed in vitro and in vivo in swine to determine the accuracy of the LR guidewire system. No intra- or postprocedure device-related adverse events occurred. A balloon or stent was successfully delivered in 12 patients (50%) over the LR wire. Differences in repeatability between successive LR measurements was 2.5±0.40% (R2=0.96) with no significant bias. Differences in measurements of LR to other modalities were 0.5±1.7%, 5.0±1.8%, -1.5±2.0%, and 6.8±3.4% for intravascular ultrasound core laboratory, quantitative angiography, angiographic, and duplex ultrasound, respectively. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates that through a physics-based principle, LR provides a real-time, safe, reproducible, and accurate vessel size of the femoropopliteal artery during intervention and can additionally serve as a conduit for therapy delivery over its wire-based platform.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To consider the clinical outcomes and restenosis rates of drug-eluting balloons (DEBs) and percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) in diabetic patients with infrapopliteal (IP) arterial disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective, single-center study included 51 patients (37 males; mean age: 63.43 ± 9.81 years) with diabetes mellitus having IP arterial disease, from October 2012 to September 2014. Twenty-two patients were treated with PTA, and 29 patients were treated with DEBs. After intervention, the patients were evaluated in the first week and every 3 months, clinically and radiologically. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to evaluate the clinical outcomes of diabetic patients with IP arterial disease who were treated with either DEBs or PTA. RESULTS There were no statistically significant differences between the groups in terms of age and gender, risk factors, characteristics of lesions, or the diameters or length of the balloons ( P > .05). Primary patency was higher in the DEB group than in the PTA group (97.8% vs 81.1%, P = .020) in the first 3 months. However, there was no statistically significant difference at 1-year follow-up (68.2% vs 48.5%, P = .131). At the 12-month follow-up, there was no difference in clinical improvement between the groups ( P = .193). CONCLUSION The findings of this study reveal that DEB is a safe alternative treatment method for IP arterial disease in diabetic patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the safety, feasibility, and effectiveness of cutting balloon angioplasty in the management of infrapopliteal bifurcation disease. METHODS Between November 2010 and March 2013, 23 patients (mean age 69.6±9.01 years, range 56-89; 16 men) suffering from critical limb ischemia were treated using cutting balloon angioplasty (single cutting balloon, T-shaped double cutting balloon, or double kissing cutting balloon technique) for 47 infrapopliteal artery bifurcation lesions (16 popliteal bifurcation and 9 tibioperoneal bifurcation) in 25 limbs. Follow-up consisted of clinical examination and duplex ultrasonography at 1 month and every 3 months thereafter. RESULTS All treatments were technically successful. No 30-day death or adverse events needing treatment were registered. No flow-limiting dissection was observed, so no stent implantation was necessary. The mean postprocedure minimum lumen diameter and acute gain were 0.28±0.04 and 0.20±0.06 cm, respectively, with a residual stenosis of 0.04±0.02 cm. Primary and secondary patency rates were estimated as 89.3% and 93.5% at 6 months and 77.7% and 88.8% at 12 months, respectively; 1-year primary and secondary patency rates of the treated bifurcation were 74.2% and 87.0%, respectively. The survival rate estimated by Kaplan-Meier analysis was 82.5% at 1 year. CONCLUSION Cutting balloon angioplasty seems to be a safe and effective tool in the routine treatment of short/ostial infrapopliteal bifurcation lesions, avoiding procedure-related complications, overcoming the limitations of conventional angioplasty, and improving the outcome of catheter-based therapy.
