Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of percutaneous transcatheter angioplasty (PTA) in infrapopliteal arteries with
peripheral arterial disease (PAH).

Material and Methods: Between January 2018 and January 2019, the recorded findings and control Doppler ultrasonography (DUSG)
reports of patients undergoing endovascular PTA treatment for infrapopilteal PAH were obtained. Pre- and post-treatment recorded
DSA images were analyzed to list which vascular structures were diseased, their number and response to treatment. Patients who received
endovascular treatment due to critical foot ischemia, ischemic resting pain or foot wound were included in the study. The normal
clearance of the diseased vascular structure in DSA and the adequate passage of the contrast medium to this level were determined as the
technical success criteria of endovascular treatment. In control DUSG applications, a normal form of triphasic lower extremity arterial
flow was determined as the patency criterion. After provincial treatment, one-year stay with no endovascular treatment was accepted
as primary patency. Secondary patency was considered if additional treatment was needed for vascular exposure during this period.

Results: Data from 19 patients with a total of 27 infrapopliteal artery disease treated endovascularly were included in the study. 15
(78.9%) patients had hypertension, nine (47.3%) had diabetes, seven (36.8%) had smoking history. 68.4% of patients had ischemic
skin ulcers and 42% had rest pain. There was exercise-induced pain in all of them. There was no major complication requiring surgical
intervention in any patient after PTA. One-year primary patency rate was 73.6% (14/19) and secondary patency rate was 84.2% (16/19).

Conclusion: Endovascular PTA can be used safely in the treatment of infapopliteal PAH with low complication and high patency rates.

Kritik Ayak İskemisi Tedavisinde Endovasküler Perkütan Transkateter Balon Anjioplasti Yönteminin Etkinliği

Öz

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı periferik arter hastalığı (PAH) bulunan infrapopliteal arterlerde uygulanan perkütan transkateter anjioplasti
(PTA) tedavisinin etkinliğini değerlendirmektir.

Gereç ve Yöntemler: Ocak 2018 ve Ocak 2019 tarihleri arasında, infrapopilteal PAH nedeni ile endovasküler PTA tedavisi uygulanan
hastaların kayıtlı olan bulguları ve kontrol Doppler ultrasonografi (DUSG) raporları elde edildi. Tedavi öncesi ve tedavi sonrası kayıtlı
DSA görüntüleri incelenerek hangi vasküler yapıların hastalıklı olduğu, sayısı ve tedaviye yanıtı listelendi. Kritik ayak iskemisi olan,
iskemik dinlenme ağrısı veya ayak yarası olan endovasküler tedavi uygulanmış hastalar çalışmaya dâhil edildi. Endovasküler tedavi
teknik başarı kriterlerleri olarak, DSA’da hastalıklı vasküler yapının normal açıklığa ulaşması, kontrast maddenin bu seviye distaline
geçişinin yeterli olması olarak belirlendi. Kontrol DUSG uygulamalarda normal formda trifazik alt ekstremite arteryal akım formu
olması patensi kriteri olarak belirlendi. İlk tedavi sonrasında, başka endovasküler tedaviye ihtiyaç olmadan bir yıllık süreli açık kalma
lma durumu primer patensi olarak kabul edildi. Bu süreçte vasküler açık kalma için ek tedavi ihtiyacı olmuş ise sekonder patensi olarak
kabul edildi.

Bulgular: Endovasküler olarak tedavi edilmiş toplamda, 27 infrapopliteal arter hastalığı olan 19 hastanın verileri çalışmaya dâhil
edildi. Hastaların 15 (%78,9)’inde hipertansiyon, dokuzunda (%47,3) diyabet ve yedisi (%36,8) sigara kullanımı hikayesi mevcuttu.
Hastaların %68,4’inde iskemik cilt ülseri ve %42’sinde istirahat ağrısı mevcuttu. Tamamında egzersiz ile ortaya çıkan ağrı semptomu
oldu. Uygulanan PTA sonrası herhangi bir hastada cerrahi müdahale gerektiren majör komplikasyon olmadı. Bir yıllık primer patensi
oranı %73,6 (14/19), sekonder patensi oranı %84,2 (16/19) oldu.

Sonuç: İnfrapopliteal PAH tedavisinde endovasküler PTA düşük komplikasyon ve yüksek patensi oranları ile güvenle kullanılabilir
