Figure 3 (A) Pre-intervention angiogram in a 78-year-old man with lifestyle-limiting claudication and resting ankle brachial index (ABI) of 0.41. Note the total occlusion of the distal popliteal artery (A) and absence of any named tibial vessels. (B) Postintervention angiogram with a 4.0 x 32-mm stent placement in the popliteal artery and a 3.5 x 32-mm stent placed in overlapping fashion extending into the posterior tibial artery. One-month ABIs normalized to 1.03 and claudication was relieved.
