Abstract
EVT has emerged as an attractive alternative to bypass surgery for patients with critical limbs ischemia (CLI), achieving similar limb salvage rates as well as mortality to bypass surgery. Many reports suggest good results of endovascular therapy (EVT) for femoro-popliteal and infrapopliteal lesion as well as iliac ones. EVT should be conducted for limb salvage under familiarity with these data and our-own skills.
