TI  - Percutaneous Deep Venous Arterialization for Limb Salvage in No Option Patients 
      with Chronic Limb-Threatening Ischemia.

AB  - An endovascular approach is often considered the first line treatment option for 
      lower limb chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI), which is defined by the 
      presence of ischemic rest pain and severe tissue loss, such as ulcers or 
      gangrene. Although the technical success rate of endovascular revascularization 
      is high, in specific patients with advanced infrapopliteal disease and the 
      absence of run-off tibial vessels, the so-called 'desert foot', the chance of 
      successful endovascular revascularization is minimal. In order to avoid primary 
      amputation, several treatment options are currently being investigated, including 
      gene therapy and deep venous arterialization. This review focuses on the 
      percutaneous deep venous arterialization technique as a promising, minimally 
      invasive treatment option for limb salvage in CLTI patients presenting with a 
      'desert foot'.
