Summary

Chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) is the most severe form of peripheral artery disease and remains a major health problem. Although the angiosome concept was introduced to guide revascularization by restoring direct blood flow to the affected tissue, its usefulness is limited by anatomical variations, collateral circulation, and wounds involving multiple territories. The emerging "woundsome" concept focuses instead on improving arterial perfusion directly to the wound area, recognizing that both direct revascularization and

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Revascularization by Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty

Endovascular revascularization is performed under fluoroscopic guidance using femoral artery access. Balloon angioplasty targets infrapopliteal vessels supplying direct blood flow to the wound. Post-procedure angiography assesses wound perfusion (woundsome), and patients are classified as having successful or unsuccessful woundsome revascularization based on contrast opacification around the wound.
