Objective: To compare the results of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) and bypass graft surgery (BGS) for the treatment of infrapopliteal lesions in individuals presenting with critical limb ischemia (CLI).

Method: A total of 48 infrapopliteal PTAs and 50 infrapopliteal BGS were compared retrospectively. All grafts used nonreversed saphenous vein in a single length as a substitute.

- Marcelo Jorge Kalaf's research primarily focuses on the treatment of critical limb ischemia (CLI), specifically evaluating the effectiveness of different surgical interventions for infrapopliteal lesions.
- His 2010 study compared the outcomes of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) versus bypass graft surgery (BGS) using nonreversed saphenous vein grafts, offering a retrospective analysis of 98 procedures.
- The findings aim to enhance understanding of surgical options for CLI management, potentially guiding clinical practices for improved patient outcomes in vascular health.
