BackgroundFor endovascular treatment of below-the-knee (BTK) peripheral artery disease (PAD), independently adjudicated real-world outcomes comparing non-stent (balloon angioplasty or PTA and adjunctive treatment) with or without a concomitant ipsilateral femoropopliteal (FP) artery intervention are scarce. Methods1060 patients from the multicenter XLPAD Registry between 2006-2021 with non-stent based BTK PAD intervention are included. Primary outcome: 1-year incidence of major adverse limb events (MALE), a composite of all-cause death, any amputation, or clinically driven repeat revascularization. Results566 patients underwent BTK and 494 BTK + FP interventions; 72% men, with mean age 68.4 ± 10.9 years. Diabetes mellitus is more prevalent in BTK only group (76.5% vs. 69%, p=0.006). Mean Rutherford class 4.2 ± 1.18; chronic limb threatening ischemia is more frequent in the BTK group (55.3% vs. 49%, p=0.040). Moderate to severe calcification is higher in BTK + FP (21.2% vs. 27.1%, p=0.024), so is lesion length (110.6 ± 77.3 vs. 135.4 ± 86.3 mm; p<0.001). Nearly, 81% lesions are treated with PTA. DCB (1.6% vs 14%, p<0.001) and atherectomy (38% vs. 58.5%; p<0.001) use is greater in BTK + FP. Procedural success is higher in BTK + FP group (86% vs. 91%, p=0.009), with amputation being the most common complication at 3.3% ≤30 days. One-year MALE (21.2% vs. 22.3%, p=0.675) and mortality (4.6% vs. 3.4%; p=0.3) are similar across BTK and BTK + FP groups. ConclusionNon-stent treatment for BTK PAD with concomitant FP intervention leads to high procedural success and similar rates of 1-year MALE compared with isolated BTK intervention. Condensed abstractThe vast majority of below-the-knee (BTK) peripheral artery disease (PAD) interventions are performed with balloon angioplasty. Presence of inflow femoropopliteal (FP) PAD in patients undergoing BTK interventions can affect the outcome of the procedure. This report explores the immediate procedural success and major adverse limb events at 1 year following balloon angioplasty treatment for isolated BTK and in those undergoing an additional FP PAD intervention.
