Leriche syndrome occurs in men and is characterized by
absent or severely diminished femoral pulses, thigh and
buttock claudication, and impotence. Anatomically, the
Leriche syndrome consists of severe atherosclerotic narrowing of the distal aorta and common iliac arteries.
Nonsmoking diabetic patients generally develop occlusions of the tibioperoneal arteries in addition to femoropopliteal lesions; aortoiliac involvement is seen much less
frequently. Thus, diabetic patients presenting for limb
salvage will have multilevel disease, which is generally
infrainguinal and more difficult to treat than disease in
the larger, more proximal vessels (Fig. 20-6).
Lower-extremity ischemia has a differential diagnosis
that is extensive and includes arteriosclerosis obliterans,
thromboembolic disease, dissection, thrombosis of an
aneurysm, and in situ thrombosis. Classically, patients
with the “blue toe” syndrome present with ischemic toes
with intact pedal pulses. This disease is due to cholesterol
microembolization from aortic, iliac, and femoral artery
plaques. Angiography is performed to find the source.
Blue toe syndrome may be treated by angioplasty stents,
atherectomy, or surgical means.
Treatment for chronic atheroocclusive disease
As noted, patients with claudication usually should be
treated by managing risk factors such as hyperlipidimia
and smoking; an exercise program in which walking
through claudication is probably of value. In patients with
critical limb ischemia (Rutherford categories 4 to 6),

however, intervention is indicated. Control of pain and
infection related to the ischemic limb and optimization
of cardiorespiratory function are important. The primary
aim of endovascular or open surgical techniques is relief
of rest pain and healing of ischemic skin lesions. The
choice between a percutaneous interventional procedure
and open surger y generally depends on the exact level
and extent of the obstructive disease. In a large series of
limb salvage patients, about one third underwent
angioplasty alone or angioplasty combined with open
surgery to treat multisegment disease.
2
Combinations of percutaneous and open procedures
and surgery can be used to treat multisegment disease.
For example, donor iliac artery angioplasty and stenting
may be used to improve inflow for a cross-femoral graft.
The presence of a pressure gradient across an iliac
stenosis indicates the need for dilatation (Figs. 20-7
through 20-9).
3
Some inter ventional radiologists prefer primary stenting of all iliac artery occlusions and stenoses; however,
there is evidence to suggest that the first-line treatment
for a focal, simple iliac stenosis should be angioplasty,
with stenting reserved for percutaneous transluminal
angioplasty (PTA) failure or complex lesion morphology
such as occlusion, ulceration, or grossly irregular plaque
(Fig. 20-10).
4,5
Immediate PTA failure is defined by the
presence of residual pressure gradient, flow limiting dissection, thrombosis, or elastic recoil with residual
lumenal narrowing.

Many interventional radiologists prefer primary stent-

external iliac artery lesions, believing that the external
iliac artery is more susceptible to PTA-related dissection,
occlusion, or perforation (Figs. 20-11 and 20-12). The use
of PTA with stenting has resulted in patency rates in the
iliac segments of 90% and 80% at 1 and 3 years respectively. Angioplasty alone is generally applied to focal, simple stenoses of the common iliac arteries (Figs. 20-13
).

complications range from 4 to 7% (Fig. 20-16).
It is important to note that many patient-related and
anatomy-related factors will affect the outcome of a PTA
and stenting. In general, focal disease responds well to
percutaneous therapy, whereas diffuse disease does not.
Proximal lesions (e.g., aortoiliac segments) respond better to either percutaneous techniques or surgery than do
distal ones (e.g., tibial segments). Stenoses historically
fare better than occlusions, primarily because some occlusions cannot be crossed. With current technology, virtually all femoropopliteal artery stenoses and occlusions
now can be crossed and dilated. The status of runoff
below the angioplasty site is an extremely important predictor of patency. Patients presenting with critical limb
ischemia rather than claudication generally fare less well

with percutaneous techniques, primarily because they
have more diffuse disease. Similarly, diabetic patients
have been reported to fare worse than nondiabetics with
infrainguinal PTA, but this is probably statistically confounded by runoff status and extent of disease.
11
Femoropopliteal artery angioplasty has a technical success rate of 85 to 95%, 62 to 86% primar y patency at 1
year, and 45 to 60% primary patency at 3 years (Fig.
20-17). The prognosis for durability in the femoropopliteal distribution is highly dependent on lesion site,
length, and runoff status as well as clinical presentation.
Claudicators with proximal focal lesions and good runoff
fare best; conversely, limb-salvage patients with diffuse
disease do poorly. Lesions 10 cm or longer usually should
be treated surgically.
12–20
Stents are effective in salvaging
acute failed PTA (due to elastic recoil, dissection, or
thrombosis) but not as a primary therapy or in treating
late restenoses.
21–23
PTA of infrapopliteal arteries is reserved for patients
with limb-threatening critical ischemia (Rutherford categories 4 through 6.) Infrapopliteal PTA is associated with
a limb salvage rate of 60 to 80%, and a technical success
rate greater than 90%. It is most effective in selected
patients with focal lesions, and good runoff distal to the
PTA site. It is ineffective in diffuse disease. It may be
performed in conjunction with femoropopliteal PTA
(Fig. 20-18).
24–30
Adjunctive mechanical techniques (e.g.,
rotoblator, atherectomy) may be helpful in selected patients, but they are not a first-line therapy or widely used.
It is difficult to compare the results of surgery and PTA
in patients with peripheral arterial disease. In patients
with anatomically favorable lesions who were predominantly claudicators, one randomized study found about
equal effectiveness, that a failed PTA did not place the
patient at higher risk for limb loss or surgical failure, and
that survival was improved in the PTA group.
31,32
Another
demonstrated a significant decrease in the length of hospital stay
33
for the PTA group compared with the surgery
group and comparable medium-term results in both patient groups. One recent cost-effectiveness study demonstrated that for claudicators, femoropopliteal angioplasty
is more cost effective as a first strategy for stenosis and
occlusion, but for patients with chronic limb ischemia,
femoropopliteal occlusions should be bypassed, whereas
patients with stenoses should undergo PTA first.
34
It is likely that surveillance and repeat inter vention
would improve the assisted primary patency rates of
25,35
PTA.
The use of intravascular metallic stents to rescue
failed angioplasties has proven beneficial in the femoropopliteal distribution, but not as a primary therapy. Some
researchers believe that lysis of the organized fibrin
thrombus in a long chronic iliac or femoropopliteal artery occlusion will unmask a shorter underlying critical
atheromatous plaque more amenable to PTA. The role of
thrombolysis for “debulking” chronic iliac occlusions
prior to PTA is controversial.
■ Acute Ischemia of the Lower Extremities
Patients with acute ischemia of the lower extremities typically present with the five P’s on physical examination:
pain, pulse deficit, pallor, paresthesia, and paralysis. Urgent arteriography is indicated. The pain is often more
diffuse than in chronic critical ischemia, extending from
the foot up the calf. Pedal pulses are usually absent. Pallor
may be seen early, but cyanosis may supervene with time
(Table 20-3). A cool or cold extremity, especially if the
opposite leg is normal in temperature, is important to
note; transition levels for cooler temperature may be

present and are generally one limb segment below the
level of arterial occlusion. Patients may complain of
numbness or paresthesias, which may be subtle and
should be differentiated from underlying diabetic
neuropathy. The presence of paralysis or even a partial
motor deficit is an indication of advanced limb-threatening ischemia; in such cases, where a delay could cause
further deterioration, the patient may be taken directly to
the operating room. With newer and quicker lytic techniques these patients may also benefit from angiography
and percutaneous inter vention.
Nonatherosclerotic causes of acute limb ischemia or
acute pulse loss include thromboembolism, dissection
(Fig. 20-19) trauma, arteritis, hypercoagulable state with
thrombosis, vasospasm (e.g., ergotism), cardiogenic “lowflow” state, and popliteal cyst or entrapment with thrombosis and distal embolism. In atherosclerotic patients, in
situ thrombosis of a critical athrosclerotic plaque may
engender acute limb ischemia. Abdominal or popliteal
aneurysm thrombosis or thrombosis of a surgical bypass
graft also can cause acute limb ischemia in patients with
TABLE 20-3. Clinical Categories of Acute Limb Ischemia
atherosclerosis. Acute deep venous thrombosis, low-flow
states in patients with heart failure, or acute compressive
neuropathy occasionally may mimic acute limb ischemia.
The blue toe syndrome results from microembolism off
proximal athrosclerotic sites, resulting in a painful and
cool cyanotic toe. In this syndrome, pedal pulses are
preserved.
36
Thromboembolic disease
Patients with lower-extremity emboli present with sudden
profound ischemia if the underlying vessels are normal
and there are no large collaterals. These patients may
have bilateral or multilevel occlusion. The emboli usually
lodge at branch points, where vessels change caliber, occluding both main and collateral vessels. Fifty-eight percent of peripheral emboli are found in the lower extremities distal to the inguinal ligament, and 38% of
lower-extremity emboli lodge at the common femoral
artery bifurcation. Risk factors include cardiac arrythmias (e.g., atrial fibrillation) and endocarditis (e.g., intra-

venous drug abuse). The heart is the most common
source of emboli, and workup should include echocardiography. Aortic or peripheral aneurysms, mural aortic thrombi, and iatrogenic causes also must be considered. Rarely, paradoxical emboli through a patent
foramen ovale can present with peripheral arterial emboli and pulmonary emboli. Emboli to the renal and
mesenteric arteries can occur with peripheral emboli.
Angiography should be directed toward defining the levels of occlusion, distal runoff, and defining the vascular
source, if possible. Angiographically, there are occlusions
of minimally diseased vessels, intraluminal filling defects,
and poorly developed arterial collaterals (Fig. 20-20).
Branch-point occlusions and superior convex menisci are
seen. Multiplicity is the hallmark of peripheral emboli
(Fig. 20-21). There may be associated vasospasm.
The differentiation of acute thromboembolic disease
versus thrombosis in situ may be straightforward, given
the clinical history and the angiogram. In elderly patients
with underlying atherosclerosis, however, there may be
some difficulty in narrowing the diagnosis. A superior
convex meniscus alone may be seen with both entities

). The femoropopliteal arteries are otherwise widely patent
and represents the most proximal extent of thrombus
after retrograde propagation from the focal embolic
nidus or thrombosed focal plaque (Fig. 20-22.) Retrograde thrombosis usually extends back to a well-developed collateral branch. Thus, multiple concurrent sites
of acute occlusion are needed to make the angiographic
diagnosis of emboli with absolute certainty.
Treatment for acute limb ischemia
Amputation rates are proportional to the interval from
the onset of acute limb ischemia to treatment; urgent
angiography is warranted. Immediate management is directed toward administering therapeutic levels of heparin, which will minimize thrombus propagation and decrease the incidence of additional emboli.
37,38
Treating
associated congested heart failure or cardiac arrythmias
is also important, and pain control is usually necessary.
Acute limb ishemia continues to be associated with substantial limb loss and mortality from coexistent cardiac
disease. Clinical categories of acute ischemia are noted in
Table 20-3.
In patients in whom the degree of limb ischemia allows
time for aortofemoral arteriography, catheter-directed
“regional” thrombolysis is often the initial treatment of
choice.
The lytic agents are delivered intraarterially, directly
into the clot. The location and anatomy of the target
lesions as well as patient and surgery-related risk factors
must be considered. Catheter-directed thrombolysis has
advantages over surgical thromboembolectomy in decreasing the manipulation of and trauma to the endothelium during dissolution of thrombus, uncovering the underlying lesion, and visualizing the runoff vessels.
Successful recanalization is possible in most patients who
are appropriately selected. Ability to pass a Bentson

Although often associated with thromboembolus, a single defect such as this one could represent any acute occlusion, including embolus, in situ thrombosis, or trauma. In narrowing the
