A national Vascular Quality Initiative database comparison of hybrid and open repair for aortoiliac-femoral occlusive disease
2018
Abstract Objective We sought to analyze the outcomes of revascularization for aortoiliac-femoral occlusive disease by comparing hybrid repair by endovascular revascularization and open common femoral endarterectomy (ER-CFE) with open aortoiliac reconstruction and CFE (OR-CFE). Methods Using the national Society for Vascular Surgery Vascular Quality Initiative database from 2009 to 2015, we identified all patients receiving open or endovascular revascularization of the aortoiliac system and who additionally underwent CFE. Patients with concomitant infrainguinal procedures were excluded, as were procedures performed at centers with Results After exclusions, the cohort comprised 879 patients in the OR-CFE group and 1472 in the ER-CFE group with follow-up of at least 9 months. Patients with ER-CFE were older (68 ± 9 years vs 63 ± 9 years; P P P P P P = .01), shorter length of stay (median 3 vs 7 days; P P = .04). The two cohorts had equivalent major amputation rate (2.8% vs 2.9%; P = .84). Patients with OR-CFE had greater ABI improvement at long-term follow-up (0.39 ± 0.37 vs 0.26 ± 0.23; P P Conclusions For patients with aortoiliac-femoral occlusive disease, endovascular repair with concomitant CFE appeared to have improved short-term outcomes and equivalent freedom from major amputation compared with open surgical repair with CFE. Conversely, open repair with CFE was associated with better long-term improvement in ABI and ambulatory status. Open repair should therefore be considered for patients with aortoiliac-femoral occlusive disease and reasonable surgical risk.
