The Challenge and Importance of Defining Critical Limb Ischemia

, 1997
Patients with critical limb ischemia are at risk of limb loss and have very high cardiovascular and total mortality rates, which are greater than can be accounted for by the usual risk factors for atherosclerosis.

A Novel Anatomical Description of the Normal Terminal Fibular Artery and the Terminal Fibular Window: Radiological Findings and Surgical Implications

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A novel anatomical description and radiological finding, related to the anatomical course of the terminal fibular artery (FibA) was recently reported. In the article, the authors found the terminal FibA to change its course, from being posterior and medial to the fibula to surface anteriorly and laterally before residing below the tibiofibular

Tibial Intervention for Critical Limb Ischemia [PDF]

Seminars in Interventional Radiology, 2009
Diagnosis and treatment of critical limb ischemia (CLI) is increasingly important as the average age of the world population and the incidence of diabetes and metabolic syndrome increases. Fortunately, most patients will not progress to this stage of peripheral arterial disease, yet if left untreated, there is a high risk of future cardiovascular ...

The Fibular Artery Communicating Branch and Fibular Artery Dominance: An Anatomical Hazard for Posterior Approaches to the Ankle

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Open reduction of posterior malleolar fractures (PMFs) increasingly employs direct posterior approaches. The posterolateral and posteromedial approaches both develop the deep posterior compartment in the plane between the fibular and posterior tibial arteries, placing the fibular artery communicating branch (FACB) within the operative field ...

Cell Therapy in Patients with Critical Limb Ischemia

Stem Cells International, 2015
Critical limb ischemia (CLI) represents the most advanced stage of peripheral arterial obstructive disease (PAOD) with a severe obstruction of the arteries which markedly reduces blood flow to the extremities and has progressed to the point of severe ...

Balloon‐Stopper Retrieval and Peripheral Parking After Inadvertent Ostial Right Coronary Stent Deployment

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Percutaneous treatment of right coronary artery (RCA) ostial lesions is technically challenging due to cardiorespiratory motion. Case Summary We describe a 70‐year‐old man undergoing PCI for an ostial RCA lesion where a forceful cough caused complete stent expansion within the aortic root.

The Angiogenic Effects of Ischemic Conditioning in Experimental Critical Limb Ischemia

, 2014
ObjectivesIschemic conditioning (IC) is a method of angiogenic stimulus for limb ischemia. Here, we aimed to investigate the effects of short-term repeated ischemic stimulus on critical lower limb ischemic injury.MethodsRats were divided into four groups

Application of Four Frailty Assessment Tools in Elderly Patients With Coronary Heart Disease PCI and Its Relationship With Quality of Life

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Frailty is highly prevalent among elderly patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and is associated with adverse clinical outcomes and impaired health‐related quality of life.
