Key result
Arterial revascularization strategies, including endovascular, surgical, and hybrid approaches, are essential treatment options for critical limb ischemia to prevent limb loss and death.
This review highlights the growing role of hybrid revascularization strategies alongside traditional endovascular and surgical approaches for managing critical limb ischemia.
May guide critical limb ischemia revascularization choices; extends prior reviews by emphasizing hybrid approaches.
Critical limb ischemia (CLI) is the most severe form of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) that may result in limb loss and even death; thus, the fast and proper treatment should be employed as earlier as possible to prevent these catastrophic consequences. Arterial revascularization is almost always an indispensable treatment option for CLI. Although both endovascular and surgical revascularization procedures have an important role, nowadays, the hybrid revascularization as a combination of these revascularization procedures has also gained increasing popularity in the treatment of patients with CLI. This review provides an update on the arterial revascularization strategies for the treatment of CLI.

Velioğlu et al. (2018) conducted a review in Critical limb ischemia (CLI). Arterial revascularization (endovascular, surgical, and hybrid) was evaluated. Arterial revascularization strategies, including endovascular, surgical, and hybrid approaches, are essential treatment options for critical limb ischemia to prevent limb loss and death.
