Primary retrograde distal access for lower limb endovascular revascularization (literature review)
AbstractThis review focuses on the problem of using a primary retrograde distal access during endovascular revascularization in patients with lower limb ischemia. It describes the background for performing endovascular revascularization through the tibiopedal arterial segment with no previous antegrade intervention, indications, some features of the procedure, as well as results and limitations of the technique.
Keywords:primary retrograde distal access; lower limb ischemia; endovascular revascularization
