“…The results, using prosthetic bypass, are reported to be inferior. Primary patency at 3 years for Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) or Dacron is 42% and 55%, respectively, and 37% at 5 years [15,17,18].…”

The majority of claudicating patients with femoropopliteal TASC II C and D lesions will benefit from the endovascular treatment. Patient presenting CLI have a worse outcome, nevertheless the endovascular treatment can delay amputation, preserving the native vessel and does not impede surgical bypass if needed. For this reason, we consider that endovascular treatment may be the first choice treatment even in femoropopliteal TASC II C and D lesions.

“…33 When forced to use prosthetic grafts for infrageniculate bypass, surgical modifications of the distal anastomosis, such as with the Miller cuff, Taylor patch, or St. Mary's boot, may improve patency by altering the compliance at the graft-vessel interface. 34 Recent improvements in prosthetic graft technology, notably heparin-bonding surface technology, may improve on the comparatively lower patency rates reported above. 35 Cryopreserved venous homografts have limited long-term patency as well, with outcomes akin to prosthetic grafts.…”

The prevalence of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is increasing worldwide, with recent global estimates exceeding 200 million people. Advanced PAD leads to a decline in ambulatory function and diminished quality of life. In its most severe form, critical limb ischemia, rest pain, and tissue necrosis are associated with high rates of limb loss, morbidity, and mortality. Revascularization of the limb plays a central role in the management of symptomatic PAD. Concomitant with advances in the pathogenesis, genetics, and medical management of PAD during the last 20 years, there has been an ongoing evolution of revascularization options. The increasing application of endovascular techniques has resulted in dramatic changes in practice patterns and has refocused the question of which patients should be offered surgical revascularization. Nonetheless, surgical therapy remains a cornerstone of management for advanced PAD, providing versatile and durable solutions to challenging patterns of disease. Although there is little high-quality comparative effectiveness data to guide patient selection, existing evidence suggests that outcomes are dependent on definable patient factors such as distribution of disease, status of the limb, comorbid conditions, and conduit availability. As it stands, surgical revascularization remains the standard against which emerging percutaneous techniques are compared. This review summarizes the principles of surgical revascularization, patient selection, and expected outcomes, while highlighting areas in need of further research and technological advancement.

Randomized trial comparing infrainguinal polytetrafluoroethylene bypass grafting with and without vein interposition cuff at the distal anastomosis

Abstract: There was no improvement in the patency rate with the use of a distal anastomosis interposition vein cuff in femoral-above-knee popliteal PTFE bypass grafts, but there was a statistically significant advantage when PTFE bypass grafts were anastomosed to the popliteal artery below the knee.
