Mechanical revascularization using Solitaire AB device for acute limb ischemia secondary to popliteal and infrapopliteal embolic occlusion.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Acute limb ischemia is one of the most common arterial emergencies. The data of mechanical revascularization using Solitaire AB device coupled with thromboaspiration for the treatment of popliteal and infrapopliteal acute limb ischemia are limited. The aim of this study was to review the preliminary safety and effectiveness.

Methods

We performed a single-center retrospective review of patients with popliteal and infrapopliteal acute limb ischemia treated with Solitaire AB device coupled with thromboaspiration from February 2019 to May 2020. Adjunctive balloon angioplasty was performed to correct coexisting atherosclerotic stenosis. Technical success was defined as successful deployment of the Solitaire AB device across the occlusive segment and successful retrieval
