Peripheral Vascular Disease: Our Reality in Latin America, with the LATAM SOLACI Peripheral Registry

On the one hand, chronic peripheral vascular disease is on the rise. On the other, over the past 20&nbsp;years, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has gained considerable ground thanks to various new devices, replacing surgery as an alternative in most scenarios. Both strategies have shown similar results, but PCI has fewer complications and shorter hospital stays.<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2024/04/18/peripheral-vascular-disease-our-reality-in-latin-america-with-the-latam-solaci-peripheral-registry/" title="Read more" >...</a>

Cilostazol en pacientes diabéticos con revascularización periférica endovascular: Un paso más allá de la mejoría sintomática

Cilostazol in Diabetic Patients with Endovascular Peripheral Revascularization: One Step Beyond Symptom Improvement

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<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2023/11/24/cilostazol-in-diabetic-patients-with-endovascular-peripheral-revascularization-one-step-beyond-symptom-improvement/" title="Read more" >...</a>

TAVR: Vascular Access in Patients with Peripheral Artery Disease, 1-Year Outcomes

At present, the transfemoral access (TFA) is the preferred approach when it comes to transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). However, 5 to10% of PAD patients present tortuous iliac anatomy and calcification, aortic aneurysms or prior peripheral intervention, which makes it impossible.&nbsp; There are several alternatives to approach these patients: 1) TFA associated to peripheral PCI<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2023/03/17/tavr-vascular-access-in-patients-with-peripheral-artery-disease-1-year-outcomes/" title="Read more" >...</a>

Relationship Between Medical Treatment and Long-Term Clinical Results after Peripheral Vascular Intervention

Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is one of the consequences of atherosclerosis, and it can cause pain in the limbs or tissue loss. Its treatment includes lifestyle changes such as exercise, statin therapy, antiplatelet therapy, antihypertensive medication (mainly ACE inhibitors or ARBs), and revascularization strategy. One in five patients with PAD will have experienced acute myocardial<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2023/02/24/relationship-between-medical-treatment-and-long-term-clinical-results-after-peripheral-vascular-intervention/" title="Read more" >...</a>

¿Es frecuente el uso de IVUS para guiar la ATC?

IVUS Use in Peripheral Vascular Disease: Should this Tool Be Used More Frequently in Peripheral Interventions?

Use of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) has increased rapidly, and several randomized and observational studies have shown improved results in patients who underwent coronary angioplasty using this tool. However, evidence on IVUS on peripheral interventions is more limited. Observational studies have found similar benefits when IVUS was part of the revascularization strategy.
