• Among patients with lower extremities arterial disease (LEAD), treatment of below the arteries has been historically limited to the treatment of chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI), as recommended by available guidelines.
• In this study, the authors provided new data on the role of different endovascular revascularization anatomical strategies of the below the knee (BTK) arteries adopted in claudicant LEAD patients.
• The revascularization of the anterior tibial artery seems more effective for symptoms relieves than of the posterior territories and most of the adverse events occurred in the follow up period were target vessel revascularization, suggesting that revascularization of single vessel is enough to achieve clinical success.

跛行者膝下经皮腔内血管成形术：一根血管即可缓解症状

• 在患有下肢动脉疾病 (LEAD) 的患者中，根据现有指南的建议，动脉下方的治疗历来仅限于慢性肢体威胁缺血 (CLTI) 的治疗。
• 在这项研究中，作者提供了关于在跛行 LEAD 患者中采用的膝下 (BTK) 动脉的不同血管内血运重建解剖策略的作用的新数据。
• 胫前动脉血运重建似乎比胫后动脉对症状缓解更有效，并且随访期间发生的大多数不良事件是靶血管血运重建，表明单支血管血运重建足以取得临床成功。
