Article Synopsis
- This study compares the outcomes of subintimal angioplasty (SIA) for chronic total occlusions in the superficial femoral artery (SFA) versus the popliteal artery (PA).
- Immediate results showed a higher technical success rate for PA but similar 30-day amputation rates between the two groups.
- Long-term outcomes revealed better limb-based patency, amputation-free survival, and wound healing rates for the SFA group, with the number of runoff vessels being a key predictor of limb patency loss.

January 2022
Background: An increase in endovenous interventions for deep venous pathologies has been observed. This article aims to provide an overview of the role of venous stenting in the management of chronic conditions affecting the deep venous system of the lower limbs, with a focus on intervention relating to the vena cava and iliofemoral venous segments.
Methods: An overview of the literature on the minimally invasive venous stenting procedures that are being increasingly used in the management of chronic conditions affecting the deep venous system of the lower limbs.
