A 73-year-old male with left critical limb ischemia was scheduled to undergo below-the-knee amputation. Prior to the amputation, he was referred to our institute for endovascular treatment. We inserted the new 7-Fr 150-cm-long guiding catheter, SlenGuide, into the external iliac artery from the right radial artery with the 7-Fr Glidesheath Slender. We implanted two R2P Misago stents with rapid-exchange, 200-cm-long shaft system in the stenosis of the left superficial femoral artery. This new stent system involves rapid-exchange and a long shaft system; furthermore, it is useful in transradial stenting in the superficial femoral artery.

Introduction: ProGlide is a suture-mediated vascular closure device (VCD) indicated for retrograde access closure at the common femoral artery (CFA). However, its off-label use for antegrade and/or superficial femoral artery (SFA) access has become common in many practices. This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of ProGlide for femoral artery access closure in patients undergoing antegrade infrainguinal endovascular procedures.

Background: Fractional flow reserve (FFR) can be estimated by analysis of intravascular imaging in a coronary artery; however, there are no data for estimated FFR in an extremity artery. The aim of this concept-generating study was to determine whether it is possible to estimate the value of peripheral FFR (PFFR) by intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) analysis also in femoropopliteal artery lesions.
Methods: Between April 2022 and February 2023, PFFR was measured before endovascular therapy in 31 stenotic femoropopliteal artery lesions.
Vascular Closure Device versus Open Decannulation for Femoral Veno-Arterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation.

Background: Traditional decannulation of femoral veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) involves femoral cutdown. Percutaneous methods have been developed, but data supporting their use is limited. We sought to compare the MANTA vascular closure device to open decannulation.

A 13-year-old boy was referred to orthopedic surgery for chronic intermittent pain and swelling of the left knee. Initial imaging was consistent with osteochondritis dissecans of the femoral condyle. Follow-up imaging demonstrated unexpected progression, with a mass extending into the notch, replacing the anterior cruciate ligament, and eroding the femoral and tibial condyles.
