Variability of revascularization techniques among Catalan hospitals and impact on leg salvage in patients with peripheral arterial disease.

CONCLUSIONS: Interventions of PAD are centralized in complex hospitals and have an important variability depending on the treating hospital. Hospital variability in revascularization techniques seems to have no impact on leg salvage. Endovascular and surgical revascularization would result in similar percentages of major amputations.
