Angiogenic and Microvascular Status Alterations after Endovascular Revascularization of Lower Limb Arteries among Patients with Diabetic Foot Syndrome: A Prospective 12-Month Follow-Up Study

Peripheral arterial disease (PAD)-induced ischemia is an important component of diabetic foot syndrome (DFS). The results of revascularization of the lower extremity arteries (including percutaneous transluminal angioplasty [PTA]) do not always give satisfactory long-term results, which is due to ma...

description Peripheral arterial disease (PAD)-induced ischemia is an important component of diabetic foot syndrome (DFS). The results of revascularization of the lower extremity arteries (including percutaneous transluminal angioplasty [PTA]) do not always give satisfactory long-term results, which is due to many factors. The aim of the study was to investigate the alterations in selected circulating angiogenic factors and microcirculation parameters in 41 patients with DFS following PTA and analyze their relationships with clinical outcomes during 1-year follow-up. Our study revealed a general decrease in pro-angiogenic factor levels after PTA and their subsequent stabilization during subsequent observation. The results indicated a significant association between plasma circulating FGF-2 level and poor outcomes (including the incidence of restenosis/reocclusion of treated arteries) during 12 months of observation. The perioperative changes in FGF-2 showed a significant association with LDF alterations after PTA. Follow-up 1–3 months post-intervention showed a tendency towards elevated TcpO2, VEGF-A, and VEGF-R2 levels in patients free from adverse events. These results may provide a basis for further research on the potential use of selected circulating angiogenic factors for monitoring the treatment of patients with DFS following PTA.
