Endovascular Intervention for the Treatment of Trans-Atlantic Inter-Society Consensus (TASC) D Femoropopliteal Lesions: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Abstract
Purpose
Advancements in the endovascular treatment of femoropopliteal atherosclerotic lesions have led to treatment of more complex lesions, particularly long lesions. The aim of this study was to determine the meta-analytic primary patency and need for re-intervention among patients treated for very long lesions (>200 mm) at the femoropopliteal segment and to identify potential risk factors for loss of patency.
