Endovascular Versus Open Surgical Intervention in Patients with Takayasu's Arteritis: A Meta-analysis.
CONCLUSION: This meta-analysis has shown a lower risk of restenosis with open surgical intervention than with endovascular intervention. Stroke was generally more common with open surgical intervention than with endovascular intervention. However, there were differences according to the location of the lesion, and the risk of stroke in open surgery is higher when the supra-aortic branches are involved rather than the renal arteries.

Amputation Rates, Mortality, and Pre-operative Comorbidities in Patients Revascularised for Intermittent Claudication or Critical Limb Ischaemia: A Population Based Study.
CONCLUSION: The risk of amputation is particularly high during the first 6 months following revascularisation for CLI. IC patients have a benign course in terms of limb loss. Mortality in both IC and CLI patients is substantial. Revascularised CLI patients have different comorbidities from IC patients. PMID: 28797662 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Safety, Clinical Outcome, and Fracture Rate of Femoropopliteal Stenting Using a 4F Compatible Delivery System.
CONCLUSION: Femoropopliteal stenting using a 4F compatible delivery system can be accomplished with a low complication rate, acceptable fracture rate, and with similar 12 month patency and revascularization rates as their 6F counterparts. PMID: 25579877 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Nationwide Experience of Cardio- and Cerebrovascular Complications During Infrainguinal Endovascular Intervention for Peripheral Arterial Disease and Acute Limb Ischaemia.
CONCLUSIONS: In this population-based study we found a low risk of cardiac complications, but catheter-administered thrombolytic therapy entailed a non-negligible risk of major stroke. PMID: 23333098 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
