Case Summary:
A 75-year-old man with peripheral artery disease in multiple below-the-knee arterial lesions involving the tibioperoneal trunk, anterior tibial artery, and posterior tibial artery underwent endovascular intervention using an antegrade popliteal approach.
Take-Home Message:
The antegrade popliteal approach may serve as a viable alternative when conventional common femoral artery access is not feasible; it enables treatment of multiple below-the-knee lesions via a single access point, while also facilitating reliable hemostasis.
