This 18 minutes didactic procedure concerns a 78 years old male with extremely severe peripheral artery disease: a Left limb amputation and a Right limb trophic ulcer. He presents Three right consecutive artery occlusions: Mid-SFA, Popliteal, proximal and distal posterior tibial.
This extremely complex case was treated using different technics according to the arterial segment: Sub intimal angioplasty and long stenting for SFA, Drug coated balloon for Popliteal, DES for proximal posterior tibial and coronary technics for plantar arteries.
Step-by-Step Procedure

Pre-dilatation of more than 50cm with low profile long balloon
Technics to re--enter in foot arteries
DES for distal leg arteries
DCB for popliteal artery
Self-expandable drug eluting stent for dissection and residual stenosis of SFA

The case of the month is a new way for our users to watch, learn, and share with incathlab. They can watch a video that highlights an innovative case and uses excellent pedagogical techniques, lear...
Max A.Thank you for your comment. This patient requires a monthly follow up to maintain patency in order to assure ulcer healing . After 6 months the risk of restenosis and occlusion is high .
Alaaeldin H. what is the expected patency for this long segment ,multilevel occlusion.
Max A. Thank you for your comment. This patient requires a monthly follow up to maintain patency in order to assure ulcer healing . After 6 months the risk of restenosis and occlusion is high .
marcus P. Set good
Sandeep S. why did we have to break the end of Eluvia stent towards the end of deployment.

Max A. It appears to be more convenient in long ELUVIA stent.
Collu B. Congratulations for very informative case
