PG - 960-967 LID - 10.1111/1744-9987.13991 [doi] AB - INTRODUCTION: Lipoprotein apheresis (LA) is a possible adjunct treatment for no-option chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI). This study aimed to assess the impact of a novel LA for no-option CLTI. METHODS: We retrospectively assessed 19 patients with no-option CLTI treated using the novel LA. The primary outcome was a change in the skin perfusion pressure (SPP) after treatment with LA, and the secondary outcomes were changes in the viscosity-related laboratory parameters. RESULTS: The wound-healing rate was 68.4%. The SPP at 2-3 weeks after series of LA were significantly higher both in the dorsal (41 vs. 53 mmHg, p = 0.037) and plantar (50.0 vs. 61.0 mmHg, p = 0.018) sides, compared to those at baseline. The viscosity-related laboratory markers were also significantly improved after the treatment; low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (57.0 vs. 43.0 mg/dL, p = 0.002), fibrinogen (333 vs. 258 mg/dL, p < 0.001), and C-reactive protein (0.99 vs. 0.42 mg/dL, p = 0.001). CONCLUSION: The novel LA significantly increased the SPP and improved relevant laboratory findings. CI - (c) 2023 International Society for Apheresis and Japanese Society for Apheresis.
