    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to compare the influence of inframalleolar (IM) P0/P1 on wound healing in bypass surgery vs endovascular therapy (EVT) in patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI). METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed the multicenter data of patients who underwent infra-inguinal revascularization for CLTI between 2015 and 2022. IM P represents target artery crossing into foot, with intact pedal arch (P0) and absent or severely diseased pedal arch (P1). The endpoints were wound healing, limb salvage (LS), and postoperative complications. RESULTS: We analyzed 66 and 189 propensity score-matched pairs in the IM P0 and IM P1 cohorts, respectively. In the IM P0 cohort, the 1-year wound healing rates were 94.5% and 85.7% in the bypass surgery and EVT groups, respectively (P = .092), whereas those in the IM P1 cohort were 86.2% and 66.2% in the bypass surgery and EVT groups, respectively (P < .001). In the IM P0 cohort, the 2-year LS rates were 96.7% and 94.1% in the bypass surgery and EVT groups, respectively (P = .625), and those in the IM P1 cohort were 91.8% and 81.5% in the bypass surgery and EVT groups, respectively (P = .004). No significant differences were observed between the bypass surgery and EVT in terms of postoperative complication rates in either the IM P0 or P1 cohorts. CONCLUSIONS: Bypass surgery facilitated better wound healing and LS than EVT in patients with IM P1. Conversely, no differences in wound healing or LS were observed between groups in patients with IM P0. Bypass surgery should be considered a better revascularization strategy than EVT in patients with tissue loss and IM P1 disease.
