Acute limb ischemia is a vascular emergency defined as a sudden decrease in limb perfusion associated with a risk of loss of viability of the affected extremity. Surgical treatment (Fogarty thromboembolectomy) is indicated only in suprainguinal occlusions. Other cases of acute and subacute limb ischemia should be managed percutaneously. Catheter-based treatment involves local thrombolysis and percutaneous mechanical thrombectomy (PMT). There are several devices in use for PMT; of them, the Rotarex system appears to be the most useful. There are no randomized studies comparing thrombolysis and PMT. Only indirect comparison is possible. The immediate and long-term results of PMT using the Rotarex device are probably more favorable than those following thrombolysis. Particularly for older and polymorbid patients, it may be significant that PMT, in comparison with thrombolysis, can restore blood flow faster and in one session; no contraindications for PMT in contrast to potentially life-threatening complications in thrombolysis exist, and there is also no need for observation in intensive care unit after PMT. Hospital stay after PMT is shorter. There is only one exception when thrombolysis cannot be replaced by Rotarex PMT - in the case of crural arteries involvement - due to the catheter size. In our opinion, PMT is superior to thrombolysis in the treatment of acute and subacute limb ischemia. Thrombolysis should be considered only in special cases, e.g. in crural arteries occlusions or in failure of mechanical thrombectomy.

BACKGROUND: The aim of this prospective single-centre study was to analyse the immediate results, failures and complications of percutaneous mechanical thrombectomy using the Rotarex catheter in the treatment of acute and subacute occlusions of peripheral arteries and bypasses, as well as to evaluate long-term outcomes of this method. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Patients with acute (duration of symptoms < 14 days) or subacute (duration of symptoms > 14 days and < 3 months) occlusions of peripheral arteries and bypasses were selected consecutively for treatment. The cohort consisted of 113 patients, aged 18-92 years (median 72 years). In all, 128 procedures were performed. RESULTS: Angiographic success was obtained in 120 interventions (93.8%). Reasons for failures were rethrombosis of a partially recanalised segment in six procedures, and embolism into crural arteries in one intervention--percutaneous aspiration thromboembolectomy (PAT) and/or thrombolysis were ineffective in all these cases. Breakage of the Rotarex catheter happened in one procedure. Embolisation into crural arteries as a transitory complication solvable with PAT and/or thrombolysis occurred in four cases. Rethrombosis was more frequent in bypasses than in native arteries (p = 0.0069), in patients with longer occlusions (p = 0.026) and those with poorer distal runoff (p = 0.048). Embolisation happened more often in patients with a shorter duration of symptoms (p = 0.0001). Clinical success was achieved in 82.5%. Major amputation was performed in 10% of cases. Cumulative patency rates were 75% after one month, 71% after six months, 38% after 12 months, 33% after 18 months and 30% after 24, 30, 36 and 42 months. CONCLUSIONS: Rotarex thrombectomy has excellent immediate results with a low rate of failures and complications. In comparison to thrombolysis, it enables the fast and efficient treatment of acute and subacute occlusions of peripheral arteries in one session.
