Lack of Association Between Limb Hemodynamics and Response to Infrapopliteal Endovascular Therapy in Patients With Critical Limb Ischemia

John H. Rundback , MD, FAHA, FSIR;

Retrograde pedal access has been well-described in the literature to facilitate complex arterial revascularization when a traditional antegrade approach fails. This is useful for infrapopliteal disease that is often seen in patients with CLI.

Retrograde pedal access has been...

Comparison Between Angiographic and Arterial Duplex Ultrasound Assessment of Tibial Arteries in Patients With Peripheral Arterial Disease: On Behalf of the Joint Endovascular and Non-Invasive Assessment of LImb Perfusion (JENALI) Group

Michael R. Jaff , MD, DO;

We hypothesized that a drug-coated balloon could improve treatment efficacy while maintaining safety when compared with percutaneous transluminal angioplasty for the treatment of atherosclerotic infrapopliteal arterial lesions.

We hypothesized that a...

The Peripheral RegIstry of Endovascular Clinical OutcoMEs (The PRIME Registry): Interim Analysis of the First 328 Subjects with Critical Limb Ischemia

Tibial veins are actually much larger than the tibial arteries accessed to treat arterial disease. Therefore, there is no anatomic reason to not utilize tibial veins to advance wires and catheters to reach occlusions in the lower extremity...
