Outcome of patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia with and without revascularization.
Conclusions: In a real-world setting, only half of CLTI were revascularized during the in-hospital treatment. Though, revascularization was associated with significantly better observed short- and long-term outcome. These data do not allow causal conclusion due to lack of data on the underlying reason for applied or withheld revascularization and therefore may involve a relevant selection bias.
