Lower extremity acute limb ischemia (ALI) may be more difficult to treat with catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) in patients with non-native vasculature. The purpose of this study is to compare the characteristics and outcomes of CDT performed on native arteries, stented arteries, and bypass grafts for ALI.
In treating great saphenous insufficiency (GSI), there is common understanding that a higher rate of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) occur with greater saphenous vein (GSV) ablations extending within close proximity to the sapheno-femoral junction (SFJ). However, the precise association between this distance and post-ablation complication rate is unknown1. A surrogate for how close the ablation was to the SFJ is the length of residual GSV stump on follow-up imaging.
Endovascular ablation of the greater saphenous vein (GSV) for symptomatic chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) has been shown to durably treat the majority of patients1. However, a subset of patients develop recurrent symptoms requiring additional unplanned ablation on the treated GSV, new varicosities, or both2. Laser ablation is an effective technique for GSV closure.
