A crossing algorithm was developed for the endovascular treatment of peripheral chronic
total occlusive lesions (CTOs) to educate, guide, and appropriately influence clinical practice …

Together with colleagues from different disciplines, including cardiologists, interventional
radiologists and vascular surgeons, committee members of the of the German Society of …

Objective Arterial cannulation is a vital component of endovascular interventions and often
unconventional access approaches are required due to disease complexity. Historically …

Background For long femoropopliteal occlusive lesions, the immediate technical failure (ITF)
of endovascular treatment (EVT) is relatively high. Therefore, this study aims to reveal risk …

Purpose: To describe the feasibility of balloon angioplasty using a long balloon for chronic
femoropopliteal occlusions by evaluating angiographic dissection patterns for optimization …

Background Subintimal angioplasty (SIA) is often utilized to cross femoropopliteal (FP) artery
chronic total occlusions (CTOs). Re-entry devices (RED) can further assist with true lumen re …

Purpose: To describe the feasibility and safety of an anterolateral popliteal puncture
technique as a retrograde access to chronic total occlusions (CTOs) in the femoropopliteal …

Objective: The present study aims to investigate whether RAGE promotes the calcification of
human arterial smooth muscle cells (HASMCs) and determine the relationshipbetween …

Introduction: Antegrade wire-catheter crossing remains the primary approach for
femoropopliteal interventions. Nonetheless, data reporting on crossing failure are limited …

Purpose: To evaluate the use of the GoBack-catheter (Upstream Peripheral Technologies) in
complex revascularizations in lower limb arteries. Materials and Methods: In this …
