Direct Puncture of Calcified Plaque Using a Percutaneous Transcholangiography Needle in Endovascular Treatment for Superficial Femoral Artery Chronic Total Occlusion: A Case Report

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Endovascular treatment (EVT) for chronic total occlusion (CTO) lesions has progressed recently; however, severely calcified lesions remain difficult to treat owing to challenges in guidewire passage and limited balloon or stent expansion. We report the case of a 79‐year‐old Asian male with intermittent claudication who had previously undergone

Pre‐ and Post‐Interventional Hemodynamic Characterization of the Femoropopliteal Artery Using Vector Flow Imaging in Peripheral Arterial Occlusive Disease

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives The femoropopliteal (FP) artery is the most frequently revascularized segment in peripheral artery disease (PAD), followed by the iliac segment. Wall shear stress (WSS) is a key local factor implicated in both atherosclerotic plaque formation and restenosis after angioplasty.
