Abstract

Endarterectomy with or without patch angioplasty is regarded as the treatment of reference of the stenoses of the common femoral artery (CFA). However, the use of active stents in the treatment of acute coronary syndromes (ACS) increases and requires the continuation of a double antiplatelet aggregation (APA) during a minimum of three months. Endovascular techniques as an alternative to conventional surgery might be less invasive to treat these severe lesions of the CFA. We analyzed the results of atherectomy in these patients at high hemorrhagic risk compared to endarterectomy to treat CFA lesions in patients admitted for a critical lower limb ischemia.
