Background— The 1-year restenosis rate after balloon angioplasty of long lesions in below-the-knee arteries may be as high 70%. Our aim was to investigate the efficacy a paclitaxel drug-eluting balloons versus conventional percutaneous transluminal (PTA) for reduction diabetic patients with critical limb ischemia undergoing endovascular intervention arteries. Methods and Results— Drug-Eluting Balloon Peripheral Intervention Below Knee Angioplasty Evaluation (DEBATE-BTK) is randomized,...
PurposeTo test the ability of a drug-eluting balloon (DEB) to reduce recurrent in-stent restenosis (ISR) in diabetic patients with femoropopliteal stents.MethodsA prospective all-comers study [Drug-Eluting Balloon Peripheral Intervention for In-Stent Restenosis (DEBATE-ISR); ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT01558531] symptomatic ISR undergoing treatment paclitaxel-eluting balloons was designed compare their 12-month rate that historical controls. From January 2010 December 2011, 44...
To report the 3-year safety and effectiveness outcomes from prospective all-comers DEBATE-ISR study (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT01558531) of symptomatic diabetic patients with femoropopliteal in-stent restenosis (ISR) undergoing treatment paclitaxel-eluting balloons compared historical controls.From January 2010 to December 2011, 44 consecutive (mean age 74±11 years; 32 men) were treated drug-eluting (DEBs) enrolled in study. The control group comprised 42 (age 76±7 23 conventional...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact pedal arch status and direct-angiosome revascularization (DAR) on clinical outcomes in diabetic patients with foot wounds undergoing endovascular revascularization.Between January 2014 June 2015, 93 underwent at least one below-the-knee vessel. Patients were divided into three groups according status: complete (CPA), incomplete (IPA) absent (APA). Healing within 3 months 1-year terms freedom from minor amputation, limb salvage, survival...
To retrospectively evaluate the impact of pedal arch quality on tissue loss and time to healing in diabetic patients with foot wounds undergoing infrainguinal endovascular revascularization.Between January 2014 June 2015, 137 consecutive underwent revascularization (femoro-popliteal or below-the-knee, arteries). Postprocedural angiography was used divide into following three groups according status: complete (CPA), incomplete (IPA), absent (APA). Time estimated 1-year outcomes terms freedom...
We report the first case of a wide, iatrogenic, proximal disruption right external iliac artery, occurring during staging open lymph node dissection for prostate cancer, which was repaired by hypogastric artery transposition. The mobilized and rotated anteriorly, sutured to distal segment artery. This is feasible, innovative safe technique permits, single anastomosis, secure reconstruction vascular axis leg when other procedures are not accessible.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and effectiveness carbon-coated self-expandable stents in revascularization atherosclerotic iliac artery lesions.Between January 2012 June 2016 54 (Easy HiFlype Easy Flype; manufactured by CID S.p.A., a member Alvimedica Group, Istanbul, Turkey) 40 patients were implanted our Center. Early 2-year outcomes have been evaluated terms major morbidity, mortality, primary patency, assisted secondary absence target lesion restenosis (TLR), healing...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence pedal arch quality on 5-year survival and limb salvage in diabetic patients with foot wounds undergoing peripheral angiography.Between January 2014 December 2014, 153 underwent angiography. Final angiograms were used allocate according arch: complete (CPA), incomplete (IPA), absent (APA). Five-year rates analyzed Kaplan-Meier curves compared by means Gehan-Breslow-Wilcoxon test. Associations patient procedure variables overall outcomes...
To report the benefits and role of carbon dioxide (CO2) angiography in case misalignment between fenestration target vessel during fenestrated endovascular aneurysm repair (F-EVAR).During F-EVAR, is a potentially catastrophic complication. In 2 patients, we experienced that one vessels were not visible standard different projections after positioning graft even cannulation corresponding fenestration. both cases, was sealed to aortic wall but predictable position. Consequently, acute...
BACKGROUND: To report a novel staged hybrid technique to treat complex juxtarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm (JAAA) associated with at least one iliac artery (IA) no adequate distal fixation zone.METHODS: The herein described has two main “staged” steps. first step consists in creating an zone by endovascular means; after hypogastric embolization stent-graft placed from 5 mm above the bifurcation external artery. second is surgical resection of JAAA and graft placement sutured distally which...
