  • Therapeutic Assessment of Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty for the Treatment?of Infrapopliteal Arteriosclerosis Obliterans in Diabetic Patients

    ObjectiveTo investigate and assess the value and efficiency of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) for the treatment of infrapopliteal arteriosclerosis obliterans in diabetic patients. MethodsFifty-one diabetic patients with infrapopliteal arteriosclerosis obliterans undergoing PTA in our department from January 2010 to January 2013 were included in this study. Among them, 43 patients were followed up for 2 years. Based on the Fontaine stage, we analyzed their ankle-brachial index (ABI) before and after surgery. The curative effects were evaluated. ResultsThe PTA success rate and clinical symptoms remission rate in Fontaine stage Ⅱ, Ⅲ, and Ⅳ group was 96.2% (25/26), 83.3% (15/18), and 42.9% (3/7), respectively. The success rate for stage Ⅱ patients was significantly higher than that for stage Ⅲ and stage Ⅳ patients (P<0.05). ABI ranged from 0.60±0.11 before surgery to 0.86±0.09, 0.85±0.08, 0.84±0.07, and 0.83±0.08, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months after surgery respectively. Paired t-test showed the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01). There were 9 cases of recurrence during the follow-up. ConclusionPTA is a safe and effective method for diabetic patients with infrapopliteal arteriosclerosis obliterans, and it can improve the patients' clinical symptoms. We can obtain a satisfactory effect in a short term, but the evaluation of long-term effect needs further follow-up.

  • Cox proportional hazard model for influencing factors of restenosis after femoral endarterectomy in treatment of arteriosclerosis obliterans at femoral artery

    Objective To investigate the influencing factors for restenosis after femoral endarterectomy in treatment of arteriosclerosis obliterans at femoral artery . Methods A total of 103 patients with arteriosclerosis obliterans at femoral artery who underwent femoral endarterectomy from Jan. 2012 to Jan. 2017 in our hospital were retrospectively selected as subjects of this study, to compare the clinical feathers between restenosis group and patent group, and then exploring the influencing factors for restenosis after femoral endarterectomy. Results Thirty-six patients (35.0%) suffered from restenosis after femoral endarterectomy. Patients in the restenosis group had a high proportion of high smoking and diabetes mellitus, and high level of low density lipoprotein than those corresponding indexes of the patent group (P<0.05). Results of Cox proportional hazard model showed that, diabetes mellitus 〔RR=3.338, 95% CI was (1.003, 11.113), P=0.049〕 and high level of low density lipoprotein 〔RR=3.311, 95% CI was (1.166, 9.397), P=0.024〕 were independent risk factors for restenosis after femoral endarterectomy. Conclusions Monitoring of high-risk factors like controlling blood glucose strictly and strengthening statin treatment should be done to reduce the risk of restenosis after femoral endarterectomy for patients with arteriosclerosis obliterans at femoral artery.

  • Clinical study on treatment of chronic infection of foot and ankle with lower extremity ischemic diseases by tibial transverse transport combined with antibiotic embedded bone cement

    ObjectiveTo study the effectiveness of tibial transverse transport combined with the antibiotics embedded bone cement in the treatment of chronic infection of foot and ankle with lower extremity ischemic diseases.MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed on 28 patients with ischemic diseases of lower extremities associated with chronic foot and ankle infection who were treated with tibial transverse transport combined with antibiotic bone cement between August 2015 and October 2019. There were 22 males and 6 females, with an average age of 65.6 years (range, 41-86 years). There were 25 cases of diabetic foot, 2 cases of arteriosclerosis obliterans, and 1 case of thromboangiitis obliterans. The course of infection ranged from 1 to 27 years, with an average of 14.9 years. The healing condition and time of foot and ankle in all patients were recorded and compared, and the Wagner grading and WIFi (W: lower extremity wound classification; I: ischemic classification; Fi: foot infection classification) grading were compared before and at last follow-up.ResultsThe wound surface of 1 diabetic foot patient improved at 111 days after operation, without purulent secretion, and lost follow-up. The remaining 27 cases were followed up 5 to 21 months (mean, 8.4 months). There was no necrosis in the tibial osteotomy incision and the local flap. After operation, 21 cases showed needle reaction of external fixator, but the needle infection gradually improved after the corresponding treatment. Among the 24 patients with diabetic foot, 1 died of multiple organ failure due to pulmonary infection. Acute lower extremity vascular embolism occurred in 1 case, and the foot was amputated due to acute gangrene. In the remaining 22 cases, the wound healing time of foot and ankle was 2.5-11.0 months (mean, 4.6 months). At last follow-up, Wagner grading and WIFi grading of the patients were significantly improved when compared with those before operation (P<0.05). One patient with thromboangiitis obliterans had foot and ankle healing at 6 months after operation. Two patients with lower extremity arteriosclerosis obliterans had foot and ankle healing at 16 and 18 months after operation, respectively.ConclusionTibial transverse transport combined with the antibiotics embedded bone cement is effective in treating chronic infection of foot and ankle with lower extremity ischemic diseases.

  • GORE VIABAHN VBX balloon-expandable endovascular overlapping stent combined with VIABAHN overlapping stent for the successful treatment of long-segment iliac artery occlusive disease: a case report

    Main iliac artery disease is a common lesion that leads to arteriosclerosis and occlusion of the lower limbs. Effective treatment of complex main iliac artery disease has always been a difficult problem. The author’s team successfully treated a patient with long segment iliac artery occlusive disease from the left common iliac artery to the opening of the left femoral artery (118 mm) with Gore viabahn VBX balloon dilated intravascular covered stent and viabahn covered stent, and be reported.
