Sumario:BACKGROUND: critical limb ischemia is one of the most challenging cases we face nowadays with high risk for amputation, retrograde trans-pedal angioplasty offers an alternative technique after failure of traditional ante-grade angioplasty. PATIENTS AND METHODS: 96 patients underwent trans-pedal or trans-tibial retrograde angioplasty after failure of the traditional ante-grade angioplasty with the aid of US, 21-gauge needle and 0.018 wire through sheath-less approach as a last chance for revascularization. RESULTS: clinical success or improvement in 77 cases (80.2%), and in other 19 cases (19.8%) there was no clinical success or improvement. The technical success was achieved in 81 cases with percentage of (84.4%), and not achieved in 15 cases (15.6%) only. CONCLUSIONS: Retrograde Trans-pedal angioplasty is an efficient, safe, and practical procedure with a high technical success and a relatively minimal procedural adverse effect.
