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 explore the impact of arterial injury on distal limb blood supply in lower limb trauma. Meth?ods Retrospective analysis of 93 patients with different levels of lower limb arterial injury admitted to our hospital from June 2014 to August 2017. There were 84 males and 9 females aged 43.54±9.90 years (ranging 25-65 years). Revascularization was performed through open reduction. Patients were divided into three groups according to their arterial injury locations. Proximal ves?sels were along the superficial femoral artery, from its beginning to the point where it was divided into the descending genicular ar?tery and direct periosteal branches. Intermediate vessels were from the dividing point on the superficial femoral artery to the popli?teal artery before it was divided into the medial inferior genicular artery. Distal vessels were from the dividing point on the poplite?al artery to the distal end of the peroneal artery. The duration from injury to revascularization in the three groups were 13.67±5.99 h, 11.15±4.43 h, and 11.92±5.48 h, respectively. There was no significant difference between groups (F=1.564, P=0.215). ISS in the three groups were 13.00±3.74, 12.77±3.81, and 11.50±3.99, respectively. There was no significant difference between groups (F=1.445, P=0.241). The following items were compared among the three groups, postoperative creatine kinase, arterial blood lac?tate and limb compartment cut. Results Creatine kinase of the intermediate vascular group was 8 743.15±6 968.48 u/L, proximal vascular group 1 467.67±1 810.27 u/L, distal vascular group 2 893.51±1 304.56 u/L. The data of intermediate vascular group were higher than those of proximal and distal vascular groups with significant difference among the groups (F=22.587,P=0.000). The lactate of the intermediate vascular group was 3.20 ± 1.51 mmol/L, proximal vascular group 1.63 ± 0.46 mmol/L, distal vascular group 1.85±0.69 mmol/L with significant difference among the groups (F=20.612,P=0.000). The compartment cut of the intermedi?ate vascular group was incised in 24, but not in 15. The proximal vascular group was not incised in 18, while 15 was incised and 21 not incised in distal vascular group. The rates of compartment cut were 61.5%, 0 and 41.7%, respectively with significant differ? ences (χ2=19.156, P=0.000). Conclusion In lower limb injuries, the intermediate vascular (from the superficial femoral artery after it is divided into the descending genicular artery and direct periosteal branches to the popliteal artery before it is divided into the medial inferior genicular artery) injury leads to the most severe distal limb ischemia.
