Characteristics and clinical outcomes of repeat endovascular therapy after infrapopliteal balloon angioplasty in patients with critical limb ischemia

Abstract: The clinical outcomes of CLI patients requiring repeat EVT three or more times were poor. The SVS WIfI clinical stage may be useful to predict the necessity of repeat EVT.

“…To date, no prospective trials have been conducted randomizing patients to open versus endovascular revascularization based on WIfI clinical stage. However, in functional patients with available vein conduit presenting with Stage 4 limbs, open bypass may be more effective and durable than endovascular therapy (32), which has been associated with higher rates of failure of wound healing, the need for repeat revascularization, and limb amputation (33).…”

“…22 It has also been shown to correlate closely with wound healing time [23][24][25][26][27] and, most recently, may be useful in stratifying patients into those who would benefit from revascularization (i.e., WIfI stage 3/4) versus those in whom revascularization may not be necessary to achieve wound healing (i.e., WIfI stage 1/2). 28,29 Understanding the risks and benefits of lower extremity revascularization procedures, as well as an individual's prognosis for limb salvage, will allow physicians to engage in more patientcentered care. This approach may ultimately contain costs by focusing resources on patients who have a high likelihood for limb salvage.…”

“…In practical terms, endovascular revascularization has come to be accepted as the first line strategy in many institutions for diabetic CLTI patients because the typical diffuse below‐the‐knee (BTK) disease makes open distal bypass technically challenging, particularly in the presence of severe calcification. Performing open bypass as the initial revascularization strategy for patients with WIfI clinical stage 4 DFUs, on long‐term dialysis, or with low left ventricular ejection fractions may achieve superior outcomes such as amputation‐free survival and freedom from major amputation, but there are no significant differences in wound healing times . These severe comorbidities together with the lack of distal vessel targets with suitable run‐off often preclude these patients from surgical bypass in actual clinical practice.…”
