Abstract

Common femoral artery atherosclerosis is a common cause of claudication and critical limb ischaemia. Surgical endarterectomy with or without patch angioplasty has been considered the gold standard for the treatment of common femoral peripheral artery disease. Endovascular intervention to the common femoral artery has gained popularity in recent years as devices and technical skills have advanced. A systematic review of the literature from 1987 to 2018 for endovascular treatment of common femoral artery disease was conducted. This article summarises the data on acute and long-term outcomes for endovascular treatment of common femoral artery disease.
