Combination of Carbon Dioxide Angiography and Outback® Elite for Revascularization of a Patient with Renal Insufficiency with Bilateral Femoropopliteal Chronic Total Occlusions

Figure 3

We subsequently performed EVT to treat the occlusion of the right SFA. We used an Outback Elite and the ipsilateral approach. This new reentry device enabled successful performance of EVT for this tough CTO lesion. The ipsilateral approach is better than the contralateral approach to bring the reentry device into the subintimal space. EVT: endovascular therapy; SFA: superficial femoral artery; CTO: chronic total occlusion.
