Off-the-shelf percutaneous deep vein arterialization for no-option chronic limb-threatening ischemia related to Buerger disease.

Percutaneous deep venous arterialization (pDVA) is an important technique in the pursuit of limb salvage for a certain high-risk subset of patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) considered to have "no option" owing to the lack of tibial or pedal targets for revascularization. pDVA seeks to establish an arteriovenous connection at the level of the tibial vessels, in addition to tibial and/or pedal venoplasty, to provide a pathway for arterial perfusion via the tibial and/or plantar venous system. A commercial system for pDVA exists; however, it is not yet approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. In the present report, we detail a method of pDVA that uses commercially available devices for a patient with no-option CLTI related to Buerger disease.
