CLI

1. The disease of every above-the-

ankle vessel segment has a weak

association with CLI: we need

many of them to get CLI

2. BTA vessel disease has the

strongest association with CLI,

particularly the small vessel

disease of the arch (the tiger of

CLI!)

State-of-the-art lecture: BTK interventions for critical limb ischemia

1. BTK & below-the-ankle disease in CLI

2. The angiosome-guided revascularization

3. Flow-guided surgery

4. Protocols and multidisciplinary team

The angiosome concept in real practice

• 9 studies 1290 limbs (CLI RTF 5-6)

• ENDO + OPEN revascularization

• Systematic review comparing DR versus IR

Conclusion

When feasible, direct revascularization of the foot angiosome affected by

ischemic tissue lesions may improve wound healing and limb salvage rates

compared with indirect revascularization.

• 15 studies 1,868 limbs (CLI RTF 5-6)

• ENDO + OPEN revascularization

• Systematic review comparing DR versus IR

Conclusion

DR of the tibial vessels appears to result in improved wound healing and

limb salvage rates compared with IR… However, the quality of evidence on

which these conclusions are based on is low.

The angiosome concept in real practice

The angiosome concept in real practice

Direct revascularization according to the

angiosome concept seems to be better

than indirect revascularization in terms

of wound healing and limb salvage

All of the studies

comparing direct and

indirect revascularization

are retrospective

1. We can assume that the operators focused on traditional optimal technical targets rather than the WRA

2. We don’t know if the same patients would have been technically revascularizable following an angiosome-oriented approach.

3. It is possible that in the “indirect revascularization” groups there was a propensity to collect patients with the most technically challenging disease and the differences in the outcomes may simply reveal basal differences in the extension and type of obstructive disease

Try to do what is possible and don’t

lose time on unrealistic targets!

www.robertoferraresi.it

Direct revascularization could have a different

value depending on the presence or not of a good

distal distribution network

Inadequate distal distribution systemGood distal distribution system

Varela et al. demonstrated that

the restoration of blood flow to

the ulcer through collateral

vessels (pedal and distal

peroneal branches) provided

similar results to those obtained

through its specific source

artery in terms of healing and

limb salvage.

Good distal distribution system

www.robertoferraresi.it

Kawarada et Al demonstrated that

a single tibial artery

revascularization, whether of the

ATA or PTA, yielded comparable

improvements in microcirculation

of the dorsal and plantar foot.

Approximately half of the feet

revascularized had a change in

microcirculation that was not

consistent with the 2D angiosome

theory

Good distal distribution system

www.robertoferraresi.it

In diabetic and ESRD pts

collateral vessels formation is

reduced or absent foot

circulation becomes functionally

terminal because of lack of

collaterals. This is the reason

why we need to improve the

most direct blood flow to the

wounded area

Azuma N et Al. Factors influencing wound healing of

critical ischaemic foot after bypass surgery: Is the

angiosome important in selecting bypass target artery? Eur

J Vasc Endovasc Surg 2012;43:322-28

Inadequate distal distribution system

Azuma et Al. demonstrated that in

bypass surgery the angiosome

concept seems unimportant, at

least in non-ESRD cases.

«We believe that a good artery

with good runoff to the foot,

regardless of the angiosome,

should be selected in non-ESRD

pts… On the other hand,

angiosome-oriented target

selection might improve the poorer

outcomes in ESRD pts.»

Inadequate distal distribution system

The value of an angiosome-oriented

revascularization is inversely

related to the function of collateral

vessels

Not every wound, especially in case of deep infection, is confined

into a single angiosome space; patients with extensive tissue

damage cannot be classified on the basis of an angiosome-

oriented revascularization.

0 56%1 better than 0

1 73%

2 80%2-3 better than 1

3 83%

PTA of tibial arteries had a better outcome than PTA of the peroneal artery alone

Extensive tissue damage cannot be

classified on the basis of an

angiosome-oriented scheme. In

these patients complete rev. better

than partial rev

Consider the rule of collateral

vessel disease/function

Try to do what is possible and don’t

lose time on unrealistic targets!
