Open and endovascular treatment of the common femoral artery in a tertiary care center.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Endovascular treatment of peripheral arterial disease involving the common femoral artery (CFA) remains controversial. This study compares the perioperative and long-term outcomes of open and endovascular lower extremity revascularization (LER) involving the CFA.

Methods

A retrospective analysis of all patients undergoing LER for peripheral arterial disease in a tertiary care center was performed. Patients were divided into the open or endovascular group based on the first LER that involved the CFA. Patient characteristics were compared, and outcomes analysis focused on the ipsilateral CFA reintervention rate. Multivariable regression was used to determine the association between the CFA revascularization strategy and CFA reintervention. Analysis was stratified ba
