Directed Subintimal Angioplasty of Tibial Vessel Occlusions

摘要

Patients with chronic critical limb ischaemia quite often have critical stenosis or occlusion of the proximal parts of the tibial arteries. The technique of directed subintimal angioplasty (DirSA) of tibial vessel occlusions makes it possible to perform subintimal angio- plasty in the required direction using it for recanalisation of a tibial artery that supplies a foot defect with blood.
