Long-term outcomes of endovascular therapy in Buerger disease with critical limb ischemia: a retrospective observational study

Puntos clave

• This research aims to assess the long-term outcomes of endovascular therapy in patients with Buerger disease suffering from critical limb ischemia.
• Conducted a retrospective observational study.
• Analyzed outcomes related to endovascular therapy in patients diagnosed with Buerger disease.
• Focused on factors like age, smoking cessation, and ulcer healing.
• Patients showed improved outcomes with younger age and smoking cessation.
• High rates of amputation were noted, but targeted interventions can enhance limb preservation.
• Ulcer healing was linked to better long-term results.
