Objective To evaluate the value of interventional therapy in treatment of iliac compression syndrome (ICS) and subsequent venous thrombosis. Methods Examined by DSA, 125 cases were diagnosed of iliac vein compression and subsequent thrombosis. In 39 cases of ICS ( group 1 ), left: right = 4.6: 1. In 86 cases of ICS complicated with subsequent thrombosis (group 2), left: right = 4.7: 1. The patients of iliac vein compression and compression-related iliac vein stenosis or occlusion without fresh thrombus were treated by percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) and self-expandable stenting. In those cases with fresh thrombosis the inferior vena cava filter were inserted before thrombosis suction, mechanical thrombus ablation, PTA, stenting and transcatheter thrombolysis. The Chi-square test for comparison of proportions was used to test statistical significance. Results In 39 cases of ICS, 38 cases were treated by PTA and stenting. In 86 cases of deep vein thrombosis complicated with ICS, 83 cases were treated by various interventional therapy. There was no significant difference in the efficiency of intraluminal treatment between the two groups at discharge (97.4% and 96.5%, X2 =0.000,P >0.05) and at 6 months follow-up(96.3% and 90.2%, X2 = 0.266, P > 0.05 ), the difference in excellent-good rate of the two groups was significant at discharge (94.9% and 79.1%, X2=3.879, P <0.05) and at 6 months follow-up (92.6% and 68.6% ,X2 =4.441,P <0.05). Conclusions Interventioual treatment for ICS and secondary thrombosis is safe and effective.

Objective To demonstrate lower limb angiography results of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in diabetics and evaluate one-year curative effect after interventional therapy. Methods Lower limb angiography results and the efficiency of interventional therapy for 44 limbs with PAD in 38 diabetics were retrospectively analyzed. Post-treatment clinical manifestations, signs and ankle-brachial-index (ABI) at 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months were compared with those before treatment. Clinical evaluation was divided into four grades: apparent, effective, ineffective and deterioration. Efficiency =(apparent + effective ) / total cases ÷ 100%. ABI was compared using analysis of variance. Results Lower limb angiography revealed multi-branch lesions, with multi-segmental stenoses or obstructions.Lesions involved both above- and below-the-knee arteries in 25 limbs (56. 8% ), only above-the-knee arteries in 3 limbs (6. 8% ) and only below-the-knee arteries in 16 limbs (36. 4% ). In the limbs only with below-the-knee arterial lesions, the involved artery branches were one in one limb (2. 3% ), two in six limbs ( 13. 6% ) and three in nine limbs ( 20. 5% ), respectively. The technical success rate of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) was 91.4% ( 53/58 ) for diseased below-the-knee arteries. Among the 12 cases with foot and ankle ulcers, ulcers healed within 3 months in 9 cases; however, the other three cases suffered below-the-ankle (in one case) or below-the-knee amputation (in two cases) within 6 months. Four cases with gangrene suffered below-the-knee amputation within one month after PTA. The amputation rate was 15. 9% (7/44). At 1 week, 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after PTA, the effective rates were 79. 6%(35/44), 83.3% (30/36), 85.7% (24/28), 85.0% (17/20) and 81.3% ( 13/16), respectively; ABI values were 0. 86 ± 0. 10, 0. 85 ± 0. 10, 0. 83 ± 0. 11, 0. 79 ± 0. 12 and 0. 75 ± 0. 12, respectively.Compared with pre-PTA ABI value (0. 53 ±0. 20), post-PTA ABI value was significant higher (F=35.79,P < 0. 05 ). However, ABI value began to decline from the 6th month after PTA. Conclusions In diabetics, PAD always involves both above- and below-the-knee arteries. PTA is a feasible and effective revascularization therapy, which could improve the clinical signs and symptoms of lower limb ischemia in diabetics with PAD. The clinical effect is satisfactory during short-term follow-up.

Objective To assesse prognostic factors regarding long-term primary patency for patients who underwent intra-arterial thrombolysis and/or adjuvant endovascular techniques due to acute lower limb ischemia. Methods Consecutive patients with ALI of the lower extremities treated via interventional methods between January 2005 and June 2010 were identified and reviewed ( exclude patient suffered from aortic dissection involved artery of lower extremity or trauma). Analyze the potential variables with univariable analysis and only factors associated with long-term primary patency with a P value less than 0.1 in univariable analysis were introduced into the Cox regression mode.Total long-term primary patency and grouped primary patency were assessed using Kaplan-Meier estimation.Results The analyzed dataset included 107 limbs treated in 101 patients presenting with ALI (class Ⅰ 15,class Ⅱ A 36,class Ⅱ B to Ⅲ 56,according to Rutherford classification ).Eight nine limbs were enrolled in follow-up.The mean followup was 34 months ( range:1 to 53 months).Primary patency at 12,24 and 36 months was 87%,68% and 55%,respectively.Multivariable analyses identified patients presenting with diabetes mellitus ( P =0.00),PAOD ( P < 0.02 ) and thrombolysis time ( P < 0.02 ) were associated with primary patency.Compare the patency rate of patients with different thrombolysis time,the results showed that the patency rate of the patients thrombolysis time less than 4 d was higher than those more than 4 c. Conclusions lnterventional therapy remains an effective treatment option for patients presenting with lower extremity ALI.Diabetes mellitus and PAOD negatively affect the rates of limb primary patency. Thrombolysis should be limited to <4 days.
