  The Association between Infrageniculate Run-off Score and Selection of Revascularization Method in Patients with Critical Limb Ischemia and Long Segment Lesion of Popliteal Artery
  Author(s): Aina Kratovska*, Sanita Ponomarjova, Lilian Tzivian and Patricija Ivanova
  
  Background: Quantitative infrageniculate run-off scoring is not highlighted by guidelines of Critical Limb Ischemia (CLI) management. Although not strictly declared, infrageniculate run-off plays an important role in revascularization method (open versus endovascular) selection. Aim: The aim of this study was to test the infrageniculate run-off scoring system proposed by authors and its association with the selection of the revascularization method in CLI patients with long femoropopliteal lesions involving popliteal artery P1-P2 segment. Materials and methods: Forty-seven patients with Infrageniculate Bypass Surgery (IGBS) and 36 with Endovascular Therapy (EVT) of long femoropopliteal segment were enrolled into single centre case-control study. Long atherosclerotic lesion of popliteal artery P1-P2 se.. View more»
