19 Endovascular Management of Lower Limb Claudication due to Infra-Inguinal Disease |

Question 8
What’s your next move?
A. Call for a laser which is the only device that can cross a lesion of this length
B. Initiate long term catheter directed thrombolytic therapy and transfer to the Surgical Intensive Care Unit (SICU)
C. Using a soft tip wire, with back up stiffness, gently pass the wire through the chronic occlusion
D. Mechanical thrombolysis with a jet spray of tissue plasminogen activator E. Mechanical thrombectomy with a rotating tip device
The wire passes and is securely “parked” in the infrapopliteal segment. There appears to be a small amount of extravasation of contrast originating from the occluded segment that was crossed (Fig. 19.9).

Question 9
What is your next move?
A. Immediately convert to open operation because of the extravasation
B. Deploy a bare metal stent across the occluded segment and balloon angioplasty it C. Deploy a covered stent across the occluded segment and balloon angioplasty it D. Use coil embolization to control the bleeding that might occur later that night E. B or C
You successfully deploy a covered stent across the lesion and follow up with balloon angioplasty and completion images (Figs. 19.10–19.12). A pulse is now palpable behind the knee and there is a faintly palpated pulse in the foot and excellent Doppler derived arterial signal.

Question 10
What do these post reconstruction lower extremities non-invasive segmental arterial studies, obtained a week later, demonstrate? (Fig. 19.13)
A. No improvement from preoperative study (Fig. 19.1)
B. Improved waveforms and ankle brachial index on the right C. Improved waveforms and ankle brachial index on the left D. Improved waveform and systolic pressure in the left hallux E. B and C
F. B, C and D
After five months of satisfactory status, the patient became non-compliant with his daily clopidogrel 75 mg regime and abruptly stopped taking this antiplatelet inhibitor against medical advice. Five days later he developed rest pain his left foot and again sought medicalattention. Thefollowingnon-invasive testing(Fig.19.14)and leftlowerextremity arteriogram images were obtained (Figs. 19.15 and 19.16).
