Abstract
To evaluate the efficacy of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) of atherosclerotic lesions of the common femoral artery (CFA) and its bifurcation. From 2009 to 2013, 53 patients (43 men, average age, 68 years) were included in a single-center, nonrandomized, prospective study. Indication was disabling intermittent claudication (n = 36) or chronic critical limb ischemia (n = 17). Thirty-four procedures (64%) were isolated CFA PTA, whereas 7 of 53 (13%) involved inflow (including 4 iliac occlusions) and 12 of 53 (23%) involved outflow vessels. Primary stenting was performed in 50 cases (95%). CFA occlusions were recanalized in 4 of 53. Lesions involved the bifurcation in 22 cases (40%). Follow-up consisted of clinical examination and duplex scanning with ankle-brachial index measurement at 1, 6, and 12 months. A biplane X-ray was performed at 1 year. The primary end point was the absence of binary restenosis (>50% reobstruction of the CFA). Secondary end points were freedom from target lesion revascularization (TLR) and stent fracture rate. Procedural success was achieved in 96% of cases. At a mean follow-up of 24 months (with 1 patient lost of follow-up), the absence of binary restenosis was 92.5%. At the end of follow-u...Continue Reading
