Despite the development in endovascular technologies and the introduction of new tools in clinical practice, the endovascular crossing of femoropopliteal occlusions is not always possible with the antegrade approach, with a failure rate that can be up to 20%. This study aims to assess the feasibility, safety, and efficacy in terms of acute outcome of the endovascular retrograde crossing of femoro‐popliteal occlusions with tibial access.
