The “needle re-entry” technique for infrainguinal arterial calcified occlusive lesions

CVIR Endovascular, 2021
Background Vascular calcification is a predictor of poor clinical outcome during and after endovascular intervention. Guidewire crossing techniques and devices have been developed, but chronic total occlusions (CTOs) with severe calcification often ...

The “Fracking” technique: a novel approach to crack deep calcified plaque in the common femoral artery with hydraulic pressure

CVIR Endovascular, 2021
Background The patency achieved by conventional peripheral interventions for atherosclerotic lesions in the common femoral artery (CFA), called the “no stenting zone”, is not superior to that achieved by surgical endarterectomy due to calcified plaque ...

The “Direct tip injection in occlusive lesions (DIOL)” fashion

CVIR Endovascular, 2021
Background The successful intervention for peripheral artery disease is limited by complex chronic total occlusions (CTOs). During CTO wiring, without the use of intravascular or extravascular ultrasound, the guidewire position is unclear, except for ...

An unusual case of isolated symmetric bilateral peripheral artery disease of the radial artery of the index finger in systemic sclerosis: A case report and literature review

Journal of the Practice of Cardiovascular Sciences, 2022
We report an extremely rare and peculiar case of symmetric peripheral small-vessel disease involving only the radial artery of the index finger sparing major vessels in an 80-year-old female with systemic sclerosis (SSc). Our case is the first literature
