Outcomes and Patency of Endovascular Infrapopliteal Reinterventions in Patients With Chronic Limb-Threatening Ischemia.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Endovascular revascularization is the preferred treatment to improve perfusion of the lower extremity in patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI). Patients with CLTI often present with stenotic-occlusive lesions involving the infrapopliteal arteries. Although the frequency of treating infrapopliteal lesions is increasing, the reintervention rates remain high. This study aimed to determine the outcomes and patency of infrapopliteal endovascular reinterventions.

Methods

This retrospective, multicenter cohort study of 3 Dutch hospitals included patients who underwent an endovascular infrapopliteal reintervention in 2015 up to 2021 after a primary infrapopliteal intervention for CLTI. The outcome measures after the reintervention procedures included technic
