Clinical Effect of Revascularization Strategies and Pharmacologic Treatment on Long-Term Results in Patients with Advanced Peripheral Artery Disease with TASC C and D Femoropopliteal Lesions

Background. This study was to assess the clinical outcome and associated parameters of endovascular therapy (EVT group) and bypass surgery (bypass group) in patients with long femoropopliteal TransAtlantic Inter-Society Consensus II (TASC II) C and D peripheral artery disease (PAD).

description Background. This study was to assess the clinical outcome and associated parameters of endovascular therapy (EVT group) and bypass surgery (bypass group) in patients with long femoropopliteal TransAtlantic Inter-Society Consensus II (TASC II) C and D peripheral artery disease (PAD). Methods. 187 patients who underwent successful EVT or bypass surgery were assessed. The endpoints included the events of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and lower-extremity amputation (LEA), 3-year primary patency, and 3-year amputation-free survival (AFS). Results. The 3-year primary and secondary patency rates were better in the bypass group (P=0.007 and P=0.039, respectively), while the incidences of LEA, new CVD events, and mortality were comparable between groups. Weighted multivariate Cox analyses showed that cilostazol treatment (hazard ratio (HR): 0.46, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.3–0.72, P=0.001), statin treatment (HR: 0.54, 95% CI: 0.33–0.9, P=0.014), and direct revascularization (DR) (HR: 0.47, 95% CI: 0.29–0.74, P=0.001) were predictive factors of 3-year primary patency. Kaplan–Meier curve analyses of time-to-primary cumulative AFS showed that nondiabetes mellitus, mild PAD, and cilostazol and statin treatment were correlated with a superior 3-year AFS (log rank test, P=0.001, P<0.001, P=0.009, and P=0.044, respectively). Conclusions. Endovascular stenting based on the angiosome concept and bypass surgery provide comparable benefits for the treatment of long, advanced femoropopliteal lesions after a short follow-up period, whereas cilostazol therapy for more than 3 months, aggressive treatment of dyslipidemia, and surgical revascularization were associated with higher primary patency.
