Methods: We evaluated 44 lesion and patient characteristics in our Results: We identified 1329 femoropopliteal lesions in 675 patients. Statistical analysis by multivariable Cox proportional hazards model identified 16 variables that impact patency: seven lesion characteristics (Table I) most impact were a chronic total occlusion (DSS 16), lesion length �100 Patient characteristics that impact patency after endovascular CAD, Coronary artery disease; CHF, congestive heart failure; CI, confidence interval; HR, hazard ratio. with bypass surgery for critical limb ischemia (CLI) with tissue loss and Methods: A retrospective review (2004 to 2010) of patients undergoing ET for tissue loss (Rutherford class 5 and 6) provided data for loss, ET permits sustained limb salvage in patients at high risk for bypass Midterm Results of Limb Salvage and Stent Patency with Popliteal limb salvage and stent patency in patients undergoing popliteal artery collected database, identifying all patients undergoing popliteal artery ./cache/work_kmfxoxz3xnh4fbgnnwpmikxmni.pdf ./txt/work_kmfxoxz3xnh4fbgnnwpmikxmni.txt
