Abstract
Common femoral endarterectomy is regarded as the standard revascularization strategy for the treatment of common femoral artery (CFA) disease. The availability of a variety of endovascular tools has resulted in an increased number of patients with CFA disease being treated using an endovascular strategy. We sought to evaluate clinical outcomes in a contemporary series of patients who were treated for CFA disease using an endovascular-first approach. All patients with obstructive CFA disease who were treated using endovascular therapy were retrospectively identified from a peripheral interventional database. Baseline patient characteristics, anatomic details, procedural data, and clinical outcomes were assessed. Kaplan-Meier (KM) curves for mortality, amputation-free survival, and primary and secondary patency were generated. Between 2006 and 2011, a total of 30 patients underwent 31 CFA procedures. The primary etiologies of CFA obstruction were atherosclerosis (58%), access-site-related complication (32%), and thromboembolism (10%). Patients presented with severe claudication (60%), critical limb ischemia (13%), or acute limb ischemia (27%). The procedure was technically successful in 90% of cases with major complications in tw...Continue Reading
