ABSTRACT
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The surgical management of symptomatic peripheral artery disease (PAD) has changed in the last few decades. Improvement in endovascular technology has resulted in more complex lesion once reserved for open surgery being addressed in an endovascular fashion. Even with these advances, there are lesions and patients that are better managed with an open surgical procedure. The aim of this review is to describe the most commonly performed open surgical procedures for PAD. RECENT FINDINGS:
The recently published Best Endovascular versus Best Surgical Therapy (BEST-CLI) trial was an international, prospective, randomized controlled trial that aimed to investigate which revascularization (endovascular vs. surgical bypass) approach was superior for limb salvage. The evidence supports an open surgical bypass as an initial approach. The advancements made in the surgical management of PAD have provided options for patients who were once deemed poor surgical candidates. The goal continues to be utilization of the best available tools to address patient disease. In this current era, it is important to be familiar with the open surgical therapies.Palabras clave
