Popis: | Background The ideal method for recanalization of complex peripheral lesions has not been determined, despite the use of the latest endovascular devices. We describe a novel method for a fully percutaneous anatomical bypass, named the “needle bypass” technique, for treatment of complex vascular lesions with failed previous surgical therapy. Main text A 68-year-old male patient with chronic limb-threatening ischemia presented to our department. He previously had received surgical treatment 10 years prior that included the removal of the right distal common femoral artery and two surgical bypasses, an axillary-femoral bypass and an iliofemoral bypass, because he had repeated infections. He was referred to our center in order to have peripheral interventions. Since the previous conventional bridging/revascularization of the removed common femoral bifurcation had failed, the “needle bypass” technique was then used. With this novel technique, the tips of two percutaneous and bidirectional inserted needles were aligned (“needle rendezvous”) for the externalization of a guidewire in a through-and-through manner. Once this was achieved, an endovascular stent graft and an interwoven stent were deployed to cover and connect the lesion. This new technique is a minimally invasive anatomical bypass that directly connects artery to artery without any disturbance of the venous flow, and this technique, as the only option available, was performed successfully in our no-option patient. Conclusions The “needle bypass” technique is an effective percutaneous treatment method in patients with no other surgical options. |
