The Nature of Dissections in Infrapopliteal Arteries: Insights from Intravascular Ultrasound Imaging

Susan Jones-Miller , MD, MS;

Nicolas W. Shammas , MD, MS, FACC, FSCAI, FACP, FSVM;

Our aim was to examine the role of the Flex Vessel Prep system (VentureMed Group), a dynamic, microincision, non-balloon based system, prior to PTA in reducing or limiting severe dissections.

The Nature of Dissections in Infrapopliteal Arteries: Insights from Intravascular Ultrasound Imaging

Ehrin J. Armstrong , MD, MSc, FACC;

In a case of severe stenosis of the tibioperoneal trunk treated under angiographic and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) guidance, angiography underestimated true vessel size and was unable to identify the presence of dissections vs IVUS.

In a case of severe stenosis of...

Safety and Efficacy of Lithoplasty in Treating Severely Calcified Iliac Arterial Disease: A Single Center Experience

Jon Robken , MD;

Jailing of the contralateral iliac vein may occur as a result of the iliac vein stent protruding into the IVC. The advent of new, dedicated venous stents with more accurate deployment at the confluence is likely to reduce such a complication.

Jailing of the contralateral...
