Endovascular Therapy, Open Surgical Bypass, and Conduit Types for Index Treatment of Claudication
In this cohort study of 22 328 participants who underwent femoropopliteal index interventions for claudication, endovascular procedures were associated with lower rates of major amputation at 1 year compared with open surgical bypass approaches. The findings suggest that if an open approach is needed, reversed GSV conduits should be prioritized in surgical bypass.
