Deep Venous Arterialization: Techniques & Outcomes
with Dr. Miguel Montero Baker and Dr. Lucas M Ferrer Cardona
When conventional revascularization fails, can deep venous arterialization offer a new lifeline to limb salvage? Dr. Lucas Ferrer Cardona, vascular surgeon at Ascension and Dr. Miguel Montero Baker, vascular surgeon and medical director at HOPE Clinical Innovation Center join host Dr. Sabeen Dhand for an insightful discussion on deep venous arterialization (DVA).

Synopsis
The doctors discuss the progression of deep venous arterialization, highlighting the benefits of open, endovascular, and hybrid approaches. They draw on their personal experiences to share key technical nuances and explore new devices such as the Aveera Boomerang device. They emphasize the critical role of patient selection, family support, and close postoperative surveillance, including weekly wound assessments and monthly ultrasound evaluations. Although currently FDA-approved for no-option chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI), Dr. Baker notes that deep venous arterialization may hold promise even for patients earlier in the disease course.
The episode concludes by exploring future directions for deep venous arterialization, highlighting the ongoing need for research to advance limb preservation.
