ANTIPLATELETTHERAPY
Antiplatelet therapyreceives a class IrecommendationintheACC/AHA guidelinesforthe

Collaboration studied 42 clinical trials comprising9,214patients with PADandfound that
patientswhowereonantiplatelettherapyhad a 25% reductionin therateof stroke,MI,or
cardiovasculardeathwhencomparedwithpatientswhohadreceivedplacebo.TheACC/AHA
guidelines give the use of aspirin in PAD a class IA recommendation. The CAPRIE
(clopidogrel vs. aspirin in patients at risk of ischemic events) trial, which studied 19,000
patients, found that, individuals taking clopidogrel had an 8.7% relative reduction in the
composite endpoint ofMI, stroke, or vascular death when compared to those taking aspirin
alone.ThiseffectwasmorepronouncedinthesubgroupanalysisofpatientswithPAD,where

REVASCULARIZATIONTHERAPY
Revascularization therapy can be performed by either the endovascular or surgical route.
Recently, there has been tremendous improvement and introduction of several new
endovasculartechniques.RevascularizationremainsthecornerstoneoftreatmentforCLI.Itis
also indicatedinclaudicationforsymptom reliefforthosewhofailmedicaltherapyandthe

endovascular and surgical revascularization should be individualized.Each of the therapies
hasitsownmeritsanddemerits.
Based on the TASC-II classification, the vascular society has come up with guidelines
regardingthechoiceofrevascularizationtherapies.Thechoiceofrevascularizationtherapyis

wound infection is 10% to 30%, and scar-related neuropathic pain is 23%. About 30% of
graftswill require revision duringtheir lifetime. Endovascular treatmentis associated with
groin complications, contrast-related adverse reactions, risks associated with radiation
exposure,restenosis, andrepeatprocedures.Thefieldofendovasculartherapyis sorapidly
evolvingthatguidelinesandconsensusstatementsareyettoincorporatethesenewadvances.It
is suffice to say that the choice of revascularization therapy is dependent on the disease,
patient,andtheexpertiseavailable.
ENDOVASCULARTHERAPY
In the BASIL(bypassvs.angioplasty insevere ischemia oftheleg)trial, 452 patients with
severe chromic limb ischemia were randomized on an intention-to-treat basis to an initial
strategy of bypass surgery or endovascular treatment with angioplasty (not stenting) for
infrainguinal disease. Thisstudyshowed nosignificantdifferencesinthe outcomesbetween
theangioplastyandsurgerygroupsat3years.However,thisstudyhasbeencriticizedforbias
andthelackofuniformityinthestudypopulation.Also,thisstudywasdoneinanerawhere
endovascular techniques were still quite primitive in its evolution. Recently, studies have
demonstratedthatstentingofSFAlesionsyieldedabetterrestenosisandclinicalimprovement
whencomparedtoangioplasty only. In fact,onestudydemonstrated thatSFA stenting hada
24% restenosis rate at 6 months when compared to a 43% rate in those who underwent
angioplastyalone.Thus,thesefindingssuggestthatendovasculartherapyforSFAusingnitinol
stents may provide greater durability than angioplasty alone.28 In addition, with the
introduction of atherectomy debulking devices and drug-coated balloons (DCBs), the
endovascular specialistisable toachieve results similar tothatofstenting andthus hasthe

PERCUTANEOUSTECHNIQUESANDTOOLS
Varioustools areavailableinthecurrenteratotreatPADby theendovascular route.These
include short and long angioplasty balloons, special cutting balloons, more recently FDAapproved DCBs, balloon-delivered and self-expandingstents, drug-eluting stents, debulking
atherectomy devices, reentry devices, and special crossing devices to cross chronic total
occlusions.
AngioplastyBalloonsandSpecialBalloons
There are several balloons available to treat PAD. Thestandard balloons come invarious
lengths, different profiles on the same balloon and can be complaint, semi-compliant, and
noncompliant (hence tailor-made for different kinds of lesions). Then we have the cutting
balloons,whichcanhavemetalspikes,metalwires,ormetalringswoundroundtheballoon.

DirectionalAtherectomy
Directional atherectomy involves the resection of the atherosclerotic plaque with a cutting
device in the longitudinal plane. It is preferred in diabetic patients. Two FDA-approved
devicesare SilverHawkand TurboHawk(Covidien,Mansfield, MA).The DEFINITIVE-LE
(Determination of Effectiveness of the SilverHawk Peripheral Plaque Excision System
[SilverHawk Device] for the Treatment of Infrainguinal Vessels/Lower Extremities) trial

abrasive material suchas microscopic diamondparticles andatthe same time aspirates the
denudedparticles.34 The FDA-approved device is Pathway PV system (currentlyJetstream;
Pathway Medical Technologies, Kirkland, WA). The single-arm Pathway PVD trial that

SURGICALTHERAPY
Surgicaltherapyisdependentonthelesioncomplexity;patient’scomorbidities;availabilityof
venousconduits,adequatetargetdistalvessels,resources,expertise;andfinallythesurgeon’s
track record. As per Medicare claims data from 1996 to 2006, there has been a >3-fold
increase in endovascular intervention and bypass surgery decreased by 42%. Despite the
decreasing rate of bypass, surgery remains an important treatment strategy in advanced
multilevel vascular disease. Typically, surgical mode of revascularization is indicated in
patients with acceptable surgical risk (and life expectancy of >2 years) who need a more
durable long-lasting repair, those patients whose vascular disease cannot be managed by
endovascularstrategies,andfinallythosewhohavefailedendovasculartreatment.Therehas
tobe anadequate venous conduitavailable for bypass, otherwise the patency rates are the
sameasthoseforendovascularstrategies.Mortalityratesfromsurgeryrangefrom3%to8%
dependingonthecomorbidities.Ontheotherhand,theratesofmajorcomplicationsassociated
withendovascularinterventionsrangefrom1.9%to2.9%.Withtherisingelderlypopulation

approach,dependingonthearterialanatomy.
USINGTHEANGIOSOMEPRINCIPLEINPLANNING
THEOPTIMALREVASCULARIZATION
Successfullimbsalvageis dependentondetailed knowledgeofthe vascularanatomyof the
foot and ankle. The concept of angiosomes was first introduced in 1987 by Taylor and
Palmer.36 They divided the body into three-dimensional vascular territories supplied by
specificsourcearteriesanddrainedbyspecificveins.Thefootandanklearecomposedofsix
distinctangiosomes37;thesixangiosomesofthefootandankleoriginatefromthethreemain
sourcearteries.Theposteriortibialarterysuppliesthemedialankleandtheplantarfootwhich
includesthecalcanealbranch(heel),themedialplantarartery(instep),andthelateralplantar
artery(lateralmidfootandforefoot).Theanteriortibialarterysuppliestheanteriorankleand
thenbecomesthedorsalis pedisartery,whichsuppliesthe dorsumofthefoot. Theperoneal
artery supplies the anterolateral portion of the ankle and rear foot with two branches, the
anteriorperforatingbranch(lateralanteriorupperankle)andthecalcanealbranch(lateraland
plantar heel). Arterial–arterial connectionsallow for uninterruptedblood flow to the entire
foot despite the occlusion ofone or more arteries. The primarygoal for CLIpatients is to
reestablish pulsatile straight-line flow to the distal extremity, especially to the respective
angiosomewheretheulcerorgangreneispresent.38Unfortunately,15%ofsurgicalbypasses
fail to improve ulcer healing because they do not provide blood supply to the affected
angiosome.39 Gooden and colleagues found that up to 25% of patients with heel ulcers
ultimately succumbed to a proximal leg amputation despite a palpable pedal pulse.40 The
major reasonis inadequaterevascularization,becausethesupplyingarteryorthe collaterals
supplyingtheischemicareaareoccludedorabsent.41Thefailureratesofwoundhealingcan
be decreased if the bypassed vessel directly feeds the vessel that supplies the angiosome
whichisaffected(straight-lineflow),ratherthanrevascularizingoneoftheothertwovessels
thatmaysupplybloodviacollateralorarterialtoarterialconnections.42ClemensandAttinger
retrospectivelyexaminedthe resultsofdirect versusindirectrevascularizationof 52 limbs.
The direct revascularization group had fewer failures (9.1% vs. 38.1%) than the indirect
revascularization group. Those who failed to heal underwent major amputation. The
amputation rates were four times higher in the indirect revascularization group. There is
increasing evidence to support the use of angioplasty in CLI patients with infrapopliteal
disease.Onestudy,witha5-yearfollow-up,showedtibioperonealangioplastywaseffective
with a clinical success rate of 95%. Among those patients whohad a clinically successful
angioplasty,91%ofthoselimbsweresalvaged,only8%underwentbypasssurgeryandonly
9% neededsignificant amputations. Meta-analysisofinfrapoplitealangioplastybyRomiti et

48.6%,secondarypatencyratesat83.3%and62.9%,limbsalvageratesat93.4%and82.4%,
andpatient survival rates at 98.3% and 68.4%, respectively. Despite the marginal patency
