LATE EMBOLECTOMY FOR LIMB OR KNEE SALVAGE IN ACUTE LOWER LIMB ISCHEMIA: A NEW PROTOCOL
Embolectomy has long been the gold standard for treating limbs acutely threatened by arterial occlusion. Delayed embolectomy has not been investigated adequately due to the belief that accompanying mortality and morbidity render the case futile. Following our previous experience with late arterial repair for leg or knee salvage I we applied the same principle to limbs threatened with prolo...
متن کاملCombined infrainguinal reconstruction and infrapopliteal intraluminal angioplasty for limb salvage in critical limb ischemia.
The aim of this retrospective study was to assess the success rates of limb salvage, and the primary and secondary patency rates of reconstructions of critical limb ischemia (CLI) patients undergoing combined infrainguinal reconstruction and intraluminal angioplasty of crural arteries. In 2000-2005, infrainguinal reconstruction with concomitant intraluminal angioplasty of crural arteries was pe...
متن کاملLimb Salvage after Infrapopliteal Angioplasty for Critical Limb Ischemia in Surgically High-Risk Patients in Iran
INTRODUCTION: Surgical bypass for the treatment of lower extremity peripheral arterial disease is a suboptimal option in high-risk surgical patients or patients with limited life expectancy. Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) is an alternative in such patients; however, the results of this approach have not been wellstudied in our region. This study evaluated the results of infrapoplit...
متن کامل[Critical limb ischemia].
Chronic critical limb ischemia is defined as ischemia which generally endangers the distal part of a limb. If the ischemia is unrelenting, there is a high risk that amputation will be required. These critical limbs were amputated as an initial treatment long ago. Now it becomes clear that disabling patients have very poor quality of life after major amputation, and ischemic leg produces noxious...
متن کاملChronic critical limb ischemia.
BACKGROUND Some 40 000 lower limb amputations are performed in Germany each year, 70% of them in diabetics. About 80% of all major amputations may be preventable with the use of new interventional and vascular surgical procedures, particularly on the arteries of the leg and foot. We present the current state of the art in revascularization techniques and evaluate their usefulness for preservati...
