Limb-salvage angioplasty in vascular surgery practice.
OBJECTIVE To assess outcomes of percutaneous infrainguinal arterial angioplasty for treatment of chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLI) in poor surgical candidates. METHODS A retrospective clinical analysis of 67 consecutively treated patients (76 limbs) with CLI over a 33-month period was performed. Patients were considered poor surgical candidates because of absent distal target vessels (3...
متن کاملAngioplasty in critical limb ischaemia: one-year limb salvage results.
INTRODUCTION Lower extremity amputation prevention (LEAP) is an ongoing programme in our institution aimed at limb salvage in patients with critical limb ischaemia (CLI). Patients in the LEAP programme with reconstructible anatomy on initial Doppler imaging received either bypass surgery or percutaneous transluminal balloon angioplasty (PTA). We describe the 1-year limb salvage rates in 46 cons...
متن کاملThe role of transluminal angioplasty in limb salvage and claudication.
With the introduction of the Griintzig balloon catheter, percutaneous transluminal angioplasty has gained increased acceptance and has been used to dilate lesions in the coronary [7], renal [6, 91, mesenteric [41, aorta [5], iliac [ 11, femoral [3] and popliteal [3] arteries. In lower extremity ischemia it has been used primarily to treat patients with claudication and short segmental lesions [...
متن کاملLimb salvage arterial surgery for gangrene.
IN THIS paper we are concerned with the management of the severely ischaemic state resulting from chronic occlusive arterial disease. For all practical purposes this means atherosclerotic obliteration of the arterial supply to the lower limb. In general, atherosclerosis of the peripheral arteries is a relatively benign disease, and the collateral circulation compensates well for the loss of the...
متن کاملLimb Salvage Surgery for Musculoskeletal Oncology.
The management of musculoskeletal tumours has progressed tremendously over the past few decades. Limb salvage surgery has become a standard practise without compromising the oncological outcome. Patients generally will benefit with superior function and a better quality of life compared with definitive amputation. The multidisciplinary approach and advancement of surgeries are important to achi...
