    The aim of the study was to demonstrate the feasibility and midterm patency of redo endovascular procedures for recurring symptomatic ischemia after previously successful endovascular revascularization. This is a case series study done among patients admitted in kasr AlAini teaching hospital in the period between August 2013 till May 2014, presenting with recurrent chronic ischemia after previously successful endovascular procedure. Patient demographics, indications for intervention, technique, patency and limb salvage and complications were recorded and analyzed. Results have shown that the mean age was 65 years and most of the cases were claudicants (50%) and having rest pain (45%).Technical success was 90% and limb salvage rate was 93.75% at 6 months although patency was 56.25%. Complications occurred in 6 cases. Redo endovascular intervention is an acceptable option for patients with critical limb ischemia (CLI) with multiple morbidities, short life expectancy and it can be repeated safely. But not recommended for young fit patients with intermittent claudication due to its very short midterm result, as durability of reintervention is further compromised and bypass for young fit patient with adequate single segment great saphenous vein (GSV) is better.
