Treatment Strategies for Acute & Chronic Limb Ischemia
How do you choose between thrombolysis, mechanical thrombectomy, or open surgery for acute limb ischemia, and what options remain when there’s no vessel to open? On this episode of the BackTable Podcast, host Dr. Chris Beck is joined by vascular surgeon Dr. Anahita Dua (Massachusetts General Hospital) and interventional radiologist Dr. Ripal Gandhi (Miami Cardiac and Vascular Institute) to explore treatment strategies across the full spectrum of limb ischemia. They discuss presentation and referral patterns, the imaging and exam findings that start the clock, single-session mechanical thrombectomy, the evolving role of lysis, procedural endpoints, and deep vein arterialization for chronic limb-threatening ischemia.
