In patients with peripheral vascular disease (PVD), the presence of diabetes has been significantly associated with increased failure of critical lower limb ischemia (CLI) treatment, and higher incidence of amputation. This relationship has been attributed mainly to comorbidities and patient characteristics, concomitant peripheral neuropathy and marked microvascular alteration. Also, a high proportion of these patients...

Endovascular recanalization of femoropopliteal occlusions continues to be one of the initial therapeutic strategies to treat this pathology. The anterograde approach via the common femoral is the most frequently used. However, it is not always viable, especially in long occlusions with severe calcification or when the femoral artery cannot be reached. In these cases, the...
In the era of endovascular intervention, with shorter revascularization times, we see lower rates of mechanical complications due to acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Increased rates were recorded during the COVID-19 pandemic, but driven by delays in consultation. Though occasional (with an estimated incidence of 0.2%), post AMI ventricular septal defect (VSD), or interventricular communication, involves...

Peripheral arterial disease is a manifestation of systemic atherosclerotic disease with increasing prevalence. Moreover, this disease is associated with a high risk of mortality and cardiovascular events. Lipoprotein (a) (Lp a)—which has a proatherogenic, proinflammatory, and antifibrinolytic role—has been shown to be related to major cardiovascular events and peripheral vascular events after acute coronary syndromes...
For lesions in the common femoral artery, guidelines recommend surgical endarterectomy (TEA) as the gold standard. However, endovascular therapy (EVT) is an alternative option for these lesions. In 2017 the first randomized study comparing TEA vs EVT was carried out, showing that EVT presents clinical benefits, though it does not replace surgical treatment as first...
At present, we are well aware of the rise in mortality caused by severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR). Medical and surgical treatments have turned out to be suboptimal. Hence, endovascular intervention presents as an alternative therapeutic strategy with promising results. The aim of this multicenter, prospective study was to assess the safety and efficacy of the...
