Summary

We present a complete endovascular revascularisation of an atherothrombotic occlusion of the popliteal artery (APo) and below-the-knee arteries in a polymorbid patient, using several endovascular techniques, specifically local continual pharmacological thrombolysis, mechanical thrombectomy (Rotarex), aspiration thrombectomy and PTA of the below-the-knee arteries with stent deployment.

Keywords:
local thrombolysis – drug-coated balloon angioplasty – drug-eluting stenting
