    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Intraoperative angioplasty performed by radiologists alongside vascular surgery offers comparable success and complication rates to percutaneous methods. This combined approach is beneficial for complex cases, improving outcomes and reducing surgical risks.

    Area of Science:

    • Vascular Surgery
    • Interventional Radiology
    • Cardiovascular Medicine

    Background:

    • Percutaneous angioplasty is a common treatment for arterial stenoses.
    • Certain complex cases present challenges for standard percutaneous approaches.
    • Intraoperative interventions may offer solutions in difficult anatomical or pathological scenarios.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of intraoperative angioplasty performed by radiologists in combination with vascular surgery.
    • To compare outcomes of this hybrid approach with traditional percutaneous angioplasty.
    • To identify specific indications and benefits of the intraoperative approach.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 768 angioplasties, with 42 (5%) performed intraoperatively by a radiologist with vascular surgery.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Treatment of various stenoses including ilial, femoral, tibial, renal, and brachiocephalic arteries.
  • Assessment of immediate and late success rates, and complication rates.

    • Main Results:

    • 42 intraoperative angioplasties were performed in 39 patients, treating diverse arterial stenoses.
    • Immediate and late success rates, along with complication rates, were comparable to the percutaneous approach.
    • Indications included absent arterial pulsations, ulcerative lesions, and access to otherwise unreachable stenotic arteries.

    Conclusions:

    • Intraoperative angioplasty in conjunction with vascular surgery is a viable and effective option for selected patients.
    • This hybrid approach offers reduced operative morbidity, mortality, and shorter operative times compared to surgery alone.
    • Improved results are achieved by optimizing inflow and outflow in the operated vascular territory.
