Abstract

Using Nd:YAG laser and optical fiber with a metal tip, 8 patients' 10 totally occluded peripheral arteries have been successfully channelized without hemorrhage and perforation occurred. The laser energy was from 360 J to 2808 J, and the length of channelized segments was from 6 cm to 45 cm. 7 patients had follow-up examination with Doppler velocimetry at one year. All of them didn' t have recurrence of symptoms.
