Do Current Outcomes Justify More Liberal Use of Revascularization for Vasculogenic Claudication? A Single Center Experience of 1,000 Consecutively Treated Limbs

Abstract

Contemporary treatment of vasculogenic claudication is safe, effective, and predominantly endovascular. These data support a more liberal use of revascularization for patients with claudication and suggest that current nonoperative treatment guidelines may be based more on surgical dogma than on achievable outcomes.
