[Intravascular repair in extended arterial occlusive lesions (a preliminary communication)].
Subintimal recanalization as a procedure of percutaneous vascular repair is under study now. The Regional Clinical Hospital has performed 10 procedures of subintimal angioplasty in patients with extended total occlusions of iliac and femoral arteries. All the patients had presented with critical ischemia of the lower extremities with the mean humeromalleolar index of 0.24+/-0.08. A technical success was achieved in 8 patients in whom the mean humeromalleolar index was 0.37+/-0.09. There were no procedure-associated complications.
