Objective To assess the effectiveness, feasibility, and safety of endovascular intervention in patients who presented with Buerger's disease with infrainguinal critical lower limb ischemia. Patients and methods This is a prospective study that was conducted on 52 patients who presented with Buerger's disease who underwent percutaneous transluminal angioplasty. Clinical outcomes and limb salvage rates were reported at 1, 3, and 6 months following the intervention. Results The study was conducted on 52 patients, comprising 50 males and two females. The age varied between 25 and 55 years. The clinical outcome showed 73.1% technical success by endovascular intervention, with 53.8% patency rate after 1 month (P=0.001) and 86.3% limb salvage rate (P<0.022). Conclusion Endovascular treatment of patients with Buerger's disease is an effective, safe, and feasible method and shows high limb salvage rates and clinical improvement. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
