Abstract
Growing calls for minimum case thresholds to sustain surgeon credentialing are mounting in contemporary practice. To date, the volume-outcome relationship and the role of surgeon experience has remained confined to nonvascular extirpative surgery and aneurysm repair. It is unclear whether this work can be extrapolated to predict lower extremity bypass (LEB) outcomes. Accordingly, the purpose of this study was to examine whether annualized case volume versus surgeon experience is more consequential in predicting successful LEB reconstruction.
