“…Moreover, MD CTA provides availability of 3-dimensional reformatted images from source images for assessment of the variants of the popliteal artery. Advantages of CTA over MRA include better patient acceptance, speed of examination, and better spatial resolution [22]. There are several studies that involve the use of digital subtraction angiography (DSA) to investigate popliteal arterial variations in the literature [1–10].…”

ObjectiveTo evaluate variants of the popliteal artery (PA) terminal branches with 64-multidetector computed tomographic angiography (64-MD CTA).Materials and MethodsA total of 495 extremities (251 right, 244 left) of 253 patients undergoing a 64-MD CTA examination were included in the study. Of these, 242 extremities were evaluated bilaterally, whereas 11 were evaluated unilaterally. The terminal branching pattern of the PA was classified according to the classification scheme proposed by Kim; the distance between the medial tibial plateau and the origin of the anterior tibial artery (A) and the length of the tibioperoneal trunk (B) have been measured and recorded.ResultsIn 459 cases (92.7%) branching of PA occurred distal to the knee joint (Type I); in 18 cases (2.8%) PA branching was superior to the knee joint (Type II); and hypoplasia of the PA branches was found in 27 cases (5.5%) (Type III). Among these types the most frequent branching patterns were Type IA (87.5%), Type IIIA (3.9%), and Type IB (3.8%). The ranges of A and B mean distances were 47.6 mm and 29.6 mm, respectivelyConclusionVariations in popliteal artery terminal branching pattern occurred in 7.4% to 17.6% of patients. Pre-surgical detection of these variations with MD CTA may help to reduce the risk of iatrogenic arterial injury by enabling a better surgical treatment plan.

“…However, both imaging modalities use contrast agents (iodinated for computed tomography and gadolinium-based for MR), which are associated with potential nephrotoxicity, and CT exposes patients to ionizing radiation. The highest-risk patient has baseline CKD, especially with concomitant DM, in which the risk of contrast-induced nephrotoxicity may be as high as 25% after angiographic procedures 25 . It is noteworthy that the arterial calcification scores generated by CT are a composite of both medial and intimal calcification, but still correlate with coronary angiographic findings 26 .…”

Vascular calcification (VC), particularly medial (Mönckeberg's medial sclerosis) arterial calcification, is common in patients with diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease and is associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Although, the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms and genetic pathways of VC are not fully known, hypocalcemia, hyperphosphatemia, and the suppression of parathyroid hormone activity are central to the development of vessel mineralization and, consequently, bone demineralization. In addition to preventive measures, such as the modification of atherosclerotic cardiovascular risk factors, current treatment strategies include the use of calcium-free phosphate binders, vitamin D analogs, and calcium mimetics that have shown promising results, albeit in small patient cohorts. The impact of intimal and medial VC on the safety and effectiveness of endovascular devices to treat symptomatic peripheral arterial disease (PAD) remains poorly defined. The absence of a generally accepted, validated vascular calcium grading scale hampers clinical progress in assessing the safety and utility of various endovascular devices (e.g., atherectomy) in treating calcified vessels. Accordingly, we propose the peripheral arterial calcium scoring system (PACSS) and a method for its clinical validation. A better understanding of the pathogenesis of vascular calcification and the development of optimal medical and endovascular treatment strategies are crucial as the population ages and presents with more chronic comorbidities.

“…Sevalna obremenitev je pri DSA medeničnih in perifernih arterij manjša kot pri CTA, če ne uporabljamo stranskih projekcij (19), sicer pa primerljva ali večja kot pri CTA (19,20). Ob arterijski punkciji nastopijo zapleti pri približno 1 % bolnikov (2).…”

“…Bolniki s PAB imajo veliko tveganje za ishemične zaplete tudi v koronarnem in karotidnem povirju (1,2), zato jih obravnavamo po skupnih smernicah za preventivo srčno-žilnih bolezni, ki jih je izdelala skupina predstavnikov evropskih združenj za kardiologijo, hipertenzijo, aterosklerozo, sladkorno bolezen, vedenjsko medicino in družinsko medicino (20). Bolnikom s PAB svetujemo zdrav življenjski slog brez kajenja, če je le mogoče, vsakodnevno pol ure gibanja, npr.…”

In the article, recommendations for the diagnostics in suspected peripheral arterial disease are presented together with therapeutic procedures and long- term follow up of the affected patients.
