Outcomes and Characteristics of Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Angioplasty Followed by Below-Knee or Above-Knee Amputation for Peripheral Artery Disease
OBJECTIVE Little is known about long-term outcomes among patients who receive percutaneous angioplasty (PTA) for peripheral artery disease (PAD) then undergo below-knee or above-knee amputations. We sought to determine clinical outcomes associated with below-knee or above-knee amputation, along with possible explanatory factors and treatment strategies. METHODS Using data from Taiwan's Nation...
متن کاملThe Below-knee Amputation "
rhroughout the United States and Canada an estimated 80 percent of all major elective civilian amputations result from ischemia. All but a relatively few involve the lower extremity. Significant improvements in below-knee prostheses and important advances in surgical and postsurgical management now allow amputation below the knee in a majority of patients. In a consecutive series of 96 unselect...
متن کاملAmputations below the knee.
2 Director, Prosthetics Research Study, Seattle, Wash. AHE elective amputation must be considered plastic and reconstructive in nature. The need to create a dynamic and sensory motor end-organ should be foremost in the surgeon's mind in planning an amputation, and is emphasized here once more. The below-knee stump no longer hangs suspended in an open-end socket. The variable degrees of pressure...
متن کاملTotal occlusion trial with angioplasty by using laser guidewire. The TOTAL trial.
AIMS A randomized trial was performed to assess the safety and efficacy of a laser guidewire, in the treatment of chronic coronary occlusions. METHODS AND RESULTS In 18 European centres, 303 patients with a chronic coronary occlusion were randomized to treatment with either the laser guidewire (n=144) or conventional guidewires (mechanical guidewire, n=159). The primary end-point of the study...
متن کاملA plaster-pylon technique for below-knee amputation.
We reviewed 83 patients after below-knee amputation. In 56 with 69 amputations early management was by plaster-pylon. A plaster cast is applied in the operating room, and a pylon added one week later, after which full weight-bearing is allowed. We compared these patients with 27 who had soft bandaging. The 'healing' time was reduced from 98 days to 40 days, and there were no major complications...
