A purpose-built system (LimFlow pDVA system; LimFlow SA) with dedicated arteriovenous crossing tools, stent grafts that vary in length and shape, and an antegrade wire-based valvulotome that allows for a fully percutaneous procedure is used to accomplish the desired venous arterialization. ...
Retrograde Valvulotomy Catheter After completing AV crossing, the LimFlow Push Valvulotome is used to lyse the valves in the veins below the crossing point and into the foot. It is critical to completely lyse valves prior to stent deployment and to reach as distally as possible in the foot. The Valvulotome is opened by retracting its integrated sheath and only ...
Valuable lessons on how to treat valves in the outflow with a valvulotome have also been learned. The “focalization” of blood with adjunct procedures to improve venous pressurization is an evolving concept. ...
