Long-term outcomes of diabetic patients undergoing endovascular infrainguinal interventions

Abstract: DM is an independent predictor of decreased long-term primary patency after PTA/stent. Although acceptable assisted patency rates can be achieved with close surveillance and reintervention, long-term limb salvage remains inferior in diabetic patients compared with non-diabetic patients due to a more severe clinical presentation and poor runoff.

“…Although surgical bypass grafting is the gold standard, acceptable midterm secondary patency and limb salvage rates have led us to consider percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) as the first-line treatment for patients with lower extremity ischemia (Abularrage et al 2010). Successful revascularization of the lower limbs by PTA can improve patients' quality of life and functional status and decrease future atherothrombotic events (Giugliano et al 2013).…”

“…Our registry study is one of the first to describe such patients [9][10]. In the current analysis we tried to predict outcome in diabetic patients which are known to have poor survival not only after coronary PCI procedures but also after PTA [8,12].…”

“…It is quite common that the atherosclerosis coexists in many arterial beds -in coronary artery disease patients in up to 30% of the cases. The presence of diabetes has also predicted poor outcome after lower limb percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) [8]. There are still insufficient data concerning long-term clinical outcome for patients with diabetes treated with PTA, especially in the setting of ACS.…”

“…Our infrainguinal interventional technique has been reported previously. 19 In brief, all infrainguinal interventions were performed by a team of vascular surgeons who satisfied the Massachusetts General Hospital Vascular Center credentialing and Society for Vascular Surgery criteria for performance of endovascular procedures. Selective angiography was performed under local anesthesia and systemic heparin, with a target activated clotting time of 200 to 250 seconds.…”
