Abstract
With 5-year follow-up, patients have a primary patency that is comparable to an open prosthetic bypass to an above knee target. In addition, the secondary patency rate was over 90% and the major amputation rate as less than 3%. The presence of a TASC C/D lesion was predictive of failure of endovascular therapy, and surgical bypass should be considered in these patients.
