Tibioperoneal Angioplasty and Bypass

Abstract: Revascularisation by angioplasty or bypass of narrowing and occlusion of the tibio-peroneal segment is done infrequently compared with the more proximal arteries, particularly the superficial femoral artery. The indication for intervention is critical limb ischaemia and the pattern of disease when it predominantly affects the calf arteries is most commonly seen in diabetics. Surgical bypass is the orthodox technique, with well-documented long-term results. Balloon dilation has recently been tried, particularly… Show more

“…Potential complications of the atherectomy devices are hematoma, pseudoaneurysm, distal embolization, and tearing of the vessel. [23,24] In our study, 130 patients with SFA and distal lesions underwent atherectomy with PTA, and 23 patients with iliac lesions had pure PTA without atherectomy. Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty was used for residual stenosis or plaque stabilization after the plaque load was reduced by atherectomy in SFA and complicated lesions.…”

“…[19][20][21][22] Minimally invasive endovascular treatments include PTA, PTA with additional stent placement, cold-balloon PTA or cryoplasty, and atherectomy with directional, laser, or orbital volume removal methods. [23] The principal action of atherectomy devices is reducing the plaque burden by shaving or pulverizing the plaque by piercing or sanding it. In the meantime, this procedure causes minimal barotrauma in the vessel.…”

“…From that point of view, endovascular interventions may be a reasonable alternative to bypass procedures aiming to reduce the mortality rate. In this specific group however, who have diffuse atherosclerotic disease and often heavily calcified lesions, a very few patients have lesions amenable to balloon angioplasty [15, 16]. …”

“…Nevertheless, the benefits of endovascular operations are often mitigated by high failure rates, mostly because of their technical nature. In addition, patients with co-existing medical conditions, such as chronic kidney disease, are not eligible for these procedures (16)(17)(18).…”
