Objectives: Chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) is the most severe manifestation of peripheral artery disease (PAD) and is associated with high morbidity and mortality. The Naples prognostic score (NPS), a composite marker incorporating serum albumin, total cholesterol, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), has shown prognostic value in various cardiovascular conditions. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic significance of the NPS in predicting all-cause mortality and any kind of amputation in patients with CLTI undergoing endovascular treatment (EVT) for below-the-knee (BTK) lesions. Methods: In this retrospective analysis, 191 patients diagnosed with CLTI and treated with EVT for BTK lesions between 2017 and 2023 were stratified into three groups based on the NPS: low (0–1), intermediate (2), and high (3–4). The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality, while the secondary endpoint was any kind of amputation. Results: A higher NPS was significantly associated with increased all-cause mortality (hazard ratio: 3.66; 95% confidence interval: 1.72–7.78; p < 0.001), while no significant association was observed between the NPS and major amputation. Independent predictors of mortality included a high NPS, reduced left ventricular ejection fraction, and impaired renal function. Conclusions: The NPS is an independent predictor of long-term mortality in CLTI patients undergoing EVT for BTK lesions.

Acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction with coronary artery ectasia is rare and difficult to treat. The complication rate is high in percutaneous intervention. At the same time, a standard treatment cannot be performed due to the lack of sufficient studies. In this case, complex complications and a different solution technique are presented. Here, we present our experience with a case of acute inferior myocardial infarction in a 62-year-old man with an ectatic right coronary artery and a 1-year follow-up report.
