Abstract
Transpedal access is an evolving technique primarily used in patients after failed femoral antegrade approach to revascularize complex tibiopedal lesions. In patients who are at high risk for surgery the transpedal access may be the only option in failed antegrade femoral access to avoid amputation of the limbs. In recent years transpedal access is used routinely to revascularize supra-popliteal lesions due to more success and less complications over femoral artery approach. Retrograde approach parse will not give success in all cases and importantly success depends on techniques used. There are different techniques that need to be used depending on lesion characteristics, comorbidities, and hardware available to improve success with less complications. This review provides different strategies for successful treatment of iliac and femoral artery lesions by transpedal approach after failed antegrade femoral attempt.

Abstract
Purpose: To analyze the relationship between the new TransAtlantic Inter-Society Consensus (TASC II) infrapopliteal classification and limb outcomes among patients with critical limb ischemia (CLI). Methods: A single-center retrospective study was performed on 166 consecutive CLI patients (mean age 71 years; 113 men) undergoing endovascular treatment of 244 infrapopliteal lesions from 2006 to 2013. Patient, procedural, angiographic, and limb outcomes were compared for the new TASC A/B vs C/D classification for infrapopliteal lesions. Binary restenosis was determined by a peak systolic velocity ratio >2.0 by duplex ultrasound on follow-up at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months. Results: Seventy-two (43.4%) patients had TASC A/B lesions, while 94 (56.6%) had TASC C/D patterns of infrapopliteal disease. Baseline demographics and tissue loss (93% vs 94%, p=0.59) were similar between the groups. TASC A/B lesions were shorter (53±35 vs 170±83 mm, p<0.001), less severely stenosed (77%±24% vs 93%±14%, p<0.001), had a larger target vessel diameter (2.9±0.5 vs 2.6±0.5 mm, p<0.001), and were less frequently chronic total occlusions (24% vs 64%, p<0.001) compared with the TASC C/D group. Three-year freedom from both amputation (85% vs 67%, p=0.02) and major adverse limb events (79% vs 61%, p=0.02) were significantly higher in the TASC A/B group. Technical success rates (95% vs 80%, p<0.001) and 1-year primary patency (58% vs 51%, p=0.04) were higher in the A/B group. Overall 3-year survival was similar between the groups (96% A/B vs 88% C/D, p=0.2). Conclusion: TASC C/D infrapopliteal lesions are associated with higher amputation and major adverse limb events rates and lower primary patency compared with TASC A/B infrapopliteal lesions. Further studies are needed to assess the association between TASC C/D infrapopliteal lesions and clinical outcomes in patients with CLI.

Abstract
Purpose: To report a prospective, multicenter, observational study (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT01609621) of the safety and effectiveness of tibiopedal access and retrograde crossing in the treatment of infrainguinal chronic total occlusions (CTOs). Methods: Twelve sites around the world prospectively enrolled 197 patients (mean age 71±11 years, range 41-93; 129 men) from May 2012 to July 2013 who met the inclusion criterion of at least one CTO for which a retrograde crossing procedure was planned or became necessary. The population consisted of 64 (32.5%) claudicants (Rutherford categories 2/3) and 133 (67.5%) patients with critical limb ischemia (Rutherford category ≥4). A primary antegrade attempt to cross had been made prior to the tibiopedal attempt in 132 (67.0%) cases. Techniques used for access, retrograde lesion crossing, and treatment were at the operator’s discretion. Follow-up data were obtained 30 days after the procedure. Results: Technical tibiopedal access success was achieved in 184 (93.4%) of 197 patients and technical occlusion crossing success in 157 (85.3%) of the 184 successful tibial accesses. Failed access attempts were more common in women (9 of 13 failures). The rate of successful crossing was roughly equivalent between sexes [84.7% (50/59) women compared to 85.6% (107/125) men]. Technical success did not differ significantly based on a prior failed antegrade attempt: the access success rate was 92.4% (122/132) after a failed antegrade access vs 95.4% (62/65) in those with a primary tibiopedal attempt (p=0.55). Similarly, crossing success was achieved in 82.8% (101/122) after a failed antegrade access vs 90.3% (56/62) for patients with no prior antegrade attempt (p=0.19). Minor complications related to the access site occurred in 11 (5.6%) cases; no patient had access vessel thrombosis, compartment syndrome, or surgical revascularization. Conclusion: Tibiopedal access appears to be safe and can be used effectively for the crossing of infrainguinal lesions in patients with severe lower limb ischemia.

Abstract
Endovascular intervention has emerged as an accepted modality for treating patients with critical limb ischemia. However, this therapy poses multiple challenges to the interventionalist due to the presence of widespread multilevel disease, long and complex occlusive lesions, and the common involvement of the tibial vessels. Retrograde pedal/tibial access is a relatively new technique that allows the treatment of tibial occlusive lesions when conventional endovascular techniques fail. This article reviews the technical details and published data regarding this technique and evaluates its use in this difficult-to-treat patient population.

Abstract
Critical limb ischemia (CLI) represents the most severe clinical manifestation of peripheral arterial disease, defined as the presence of chronic ischemic rest pain, ulcers, or gangrene attributable to objectively proven arterial occlusive disease. The dominant pathology underlying CLI is atherosclerosis, distributed at multiple levels along the length of the lower extremity and with a propensity for involvement of the tibial vessels in the leg and the small vessels of the foot. To achieve limb salvage in patients with CLI, revascularization of the affected limb is generally required. In contemporary practice, endovascular techniques are rapidly replacing surgical bypass as the first option for revascularization for CLI based on high technical success rates and low rates of procedure-related morbidity and mortality. This review will describe the clinical strategy of the authors who have adopted an endovascular-first approach to revascularization in treating patients with CLI and summarize the clinical outcomes of endovascular therapy in this population.

Abstract
A significant proportion (~ 20%) of patients with complex tibial artery occlusions cannot be treated using a conventional antegrade approach. We report our experience using the retrograde approach for the treatment of complex tibial artery occlusive disease using retrograde pedal/tibial access in 13 limbs from 12 patients. Retrograde pedal/tibial access was achieved in all cases (facilitated by surgical cutdown in one case), and procedural success was achieved in 11 of 13 limbs (85%). Based on this experience, a discussion of clinical and technical aspects of the retrograde pedal/tibial approach is provided, and a new classification for tibial artery occlusive disease is proposed.
