Summary

This study presents a novel technique for vascular access during combined iliac and superficial femoral artery (SFA) procedures. Introducing a sheath into the SFA reduces critical blood flow interruption, optimizing profunda artery perfusion.

Area of Science:

  • Vascular Surgery
  • Endovascular Interventions
  • Cardiovascular Disease

Background:

  • Combined iliac and superficial femoral artery (SFA) occlusive disease often requires complex endovascular repair.
  • Maintaining blood flow to the profunda femoral artery (PFA) during these procedures is crucial to prevent limb ischemia.
  • Traditional approaches may lead to prolonged interruption of PFA flow.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe an alternative vascular access method.
  • To preserve blood flow to the profunda femoral artery (PFA).
  • To reduce ischemic time during combined iliac and SFA recanalization.

Main Methods:

  • A specialized sheath is introduced through the occluded SFA.
  • This facilitates iliac stenting and SFA remote endarterectomy with stent-graft placement.

  • PFA blood flow is interrupted only briefly during proximal anastomosis of the femoral endobypass.

    • Main Results:

    • The described technique effectively reduces total ischemic time.
    • Preserves adequate blood flow to the profunda femoral artery (PFA).
    • Facilitates successful combined iliac and SFA endovascular procedures.

    Conclusions:

    • Sheath insertion into the proximal SFA is an effective strategy.
    • It significantly reduces ischemic time in combined iliac and femoral endovascular interventions.
    • This method aids in preserving PFA perfusion during complex arterial reconstructions.
