Objective To investigate methods and results of endovascular treatment in TASC (Ⅱ) D-type femoral artery occlusion. Methods From January 2012 to May 2013, 26 cases (26 branches) of superficial femoral artery occlusion with endovascular treatment of TASC (Ⅱ) D-type superficial femoral artery occlusion were retrospectively reviewed. The effi-cacy was evaluated through ABI, CTA, DSA and symptoms improved. Results 26 branches were treated with endovascular methods. Technical success rate was 80.7%(21/26), including 13 branche with stent implantation, 6 branches with Silver-hawk atherectomy and 2 branches with Viabahn stent implantation. All patients were followed up for a mean period of (10.3 ± 1.2)months, primary patency rates at 6 months were 69.2%in stent group, 66.7%in Silverhawk atherectomy group and 100%in Viabahn stent group. Conclusion Endovascular treatment of TASC (Ⅱ) D-type femoral artery occlusion can lead to satisfactory short term patency rates, and Viabahn stent is the latest treatment.

Objective To compare the effect and safety of stenting versus directional atherectomy (DA) in the treatment of TASCⅡ A and B superficial femoral artery lesions.Methods 100 patients with TASC Ⅱ A and B lesions were divided into percutaneous transluminal stenting(PTS) group (n =50) and DA group (n =50).Patients were compared in terms of technical success rate,treatment success rate,first operation cost,postoperative ankle brachial index (ABI),limb salvage rate,survival,and patency.Results The technical success rate in both PTS and DA group was 100％.The treatment success rate was 98％ vs.86％,P＞0.05.Postoperative ABI:0.82 ±0.19 vs.0.80 ±0.27,P＞0.05.First operation cost:(34 820 ± 1 051) yuan vs.(45 635 ± 1 358) yuan,P ＜0.001;All patients were followed-up for up to 2-year,the cumulative patency rate was 81.6％ vs.72.9％ (P＞0.05).Limb salvage rate was 97.9％ vs.93.8 ％,P ＞ 0.05.Conclusion There were no significant differences in the effect and safety of PTS versus DA in the treatment of TASCⅡ A and B superficial femoral artery lesions.
