Objective: This study aims to identify the clinical variables which are predictive for the benefit of concomitant distal revascularization (DR) to prevent Chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) progression and the need for major limb amputation.
Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study of patients who presented with lower limb ischemia and required at least femoral endarterectomy (FEA), recruited over a period of 15 years (2002-2016). The patient cohort was divided into three groups based on the type of intervention: A (FEA alone), B (FEA + catheter-based intervention/(CBI)), and C (FEA + surgical bypass (SB)).
Objectives/hypothesis: To assess the feasibility of a simplified approach for the use of a rapid intraoperative parathyroid hormone (IOPTH) assay based on a single 10-minute post-excision level using the workup parathyroid hormone level (wPTH) as the baseline in minimally invasive parathyroidectomy (MIP) and to compare the predictive value of this criterion with other recommended criteria.
Study Design: Case series with chart review.
Methods: A single surgeon's prospectively maintained parathyroidectomy database at an academic center was reviewed over a 2-year period from June 2009 through June 2011.
