Abstract

Critical limb ischemia requires urgent diagnosis and intervention. Limitations to percutaneous revascularization therapy stem from multilevel diseased vasculature. Retrograde revascularization utilizing anterior tibial artery access in complex and proximal lesions is an alternative route for intervention that can lead to limb salvage and symptom resolution.
