Background: This study evaluated the clinical and functional efficiency of deep femoral artery (DFA) revascularization in treating thigh claudication associated with ipsilateral internal iliac artery (IIA) occlusion.
Patients And Methods: The files of patients presenting with proximal claudication, ipsilateral IIA occlusion, and conventional surgical revascularization of DFA were retrospectively reviewed. Each patient benefited from preoperative and postoperative measurement of dynamic transcutaneous pressure of oxygen (TcPO2) and presented with preoperative proximal stress-related ischemia and with the clinical symptoms of buttock, thigh, or groin pain.
Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of outpatient peripheral angioplasty in patients who were treated for lower limb claudication.
Methods: Between February 1 and December 31, 2007, a monocentric observational study was carried out on 98 consecutive patients who presented with claudication (mean age: 63 years [range: 31-90]; 81 men) and were treated by using a percutaneous femoral approach for either iliac (n = 62) or femoropopliteal lesions (n = 36). Exclusion criteria were requiring a renal angioplasty or an associated surgical procedure, having a creatinine clearance value of <30 mL/min/1.
