Abstract:
:Infrainguinal angioplasty has less initial and long-term success compared with more proximal sites. These suboptimal initial technical results may be related to the heavy calcific burden in the femoral and popliteal arteries and, subsequently, higher incidence of distal dissection. Cutting balloon angioplasty (CBA) is a newer technique that is thought to limit distal dissection in heavily calcified vessels; although CBA has been evaluated in the coronary circulation, there are few reports of its use in peripheral vessels. This study evaluates our initial experience with CBA for the management of femoropopliteal disease. Eleven patients underwent infrainguinal CBA for symptomatic limb ischemia at a community hospital. Ten procedures (91%) were technically successful, with no distal dissections, iatrogenic vessel perforations, or surgical target vessel revascularizations. In eight patients available for follow-up, the limb salvage rate was 100% and of seven and eight CBA sites (88%) were still widely patent (mean follow-up, 3 months; range, 2-12 months). This preliminary study suggests that CBA is safe and feasible for electively performed femoropopliteal chronic occlusive disease with acceptable success rates on short-term follow-up. Long-term results and comparison with other endovascular modalities require evaluation.
