What is Pedal Arch Patency and Not Direct-angiosome Revascularization Predicts Outcomes of Endovascular Interventions in Diabetic Patients with Critical Limb Ischemia about?

## Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of pedal arch status and direct-angiosome revascularization (dar) on clinical outcomes in diabetic patients with foot wounds undergoing endovascular revascularization. ## Methods: Between january 2014 and june 2015, 93 diabetic patients with foot wounds underwent endovascular revascularization of at least one below-the-knee vessel. patients were divided into three groups according to the pedal arch status: complete pedal arch (cpa), incomplete pedal arch (ipa) and absent pedal arch (apa). healing within 3 months and 1-year outcomes in terms of freedom from minor amputation, limb salvage, and survival were evaluated on the basis of dar and pedal arch status. ## Results: Dar did not affect healing within 3 months from the procedure (dar, 13/55 cases, 23.6% vs. n-dar, 9/38 cases, 23.7%; p=1), estimated 1-year freedom from minor amputation (dar 74.4% vs. n-dar 76.8%, p=0.80), limb salvage (dar 88.2% vs. n-dar 89.5%, p=0.44), and survival (dar 83.3% vs. n-dar 66.6%, p=0.15). pedal arch had positive impact on wound healing within 3 months from the procedure (cpa 45.8% vs. ipa 12.5% vs. apa 20.7%, p=0.009), estimated 1-year l
