The results of our study indicate that retrograde crossing of femoro-popliteal occlusions with tibial access is a feasible, effective, and safe approach in case of failed antegrade approach. The results presented represent one of the largest investigations ever published on tibial retrograde access and contribute to the small body of literature present on this topic to date.
