Peripheral arterial disease: a single center experience
Abstract
Aims: Angiography and interventional treatment modalities in peripheral arterial disease have recently been widely used because they are easier to perform and more comfortable than surgical treatment. Revascularization is the most effective treatment method in cases such as critical leg ischemia in this disease where pharmacological agents are also widely used. In this study, we aimed to investigate interventional treatment methods in peripheral arterial disease in our center.
Methods: Patients who underwent peripheral angiography or endovascular intervention in the Cardiology Clinic of Kırıkkale University Medical Faculty Hospital between March 2020 and June 2024 were retrospectively reviewed.
Results: A total of 55 patients, including 10 women and 45 men, were included in the study. The mean age of the patients included in the study was 64 years. Of the angiographic procedures, 46 were performed in the lower extremity, 6 in the upper extremity and 3 in the renal arteries. Endovascular treatment were performed in 26 of them. Of the endovascular treatment, 11 were balloon angioplasty and 15 were stent implantation. In 5 patients, peripheral bypass was decided.
Conclusion: Interventional treatment of peripheral arterial disease is increasingly and successfully performed in our center.

Keywords : Peripheral arterial disease, endovascular intervention, balloon angioplasty, stent implantation
