- Abstract
Background: This study aimed to analyze the clinical outcomes after revascularization for chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) in patients aged ≥ 80 years and < 80 years., Methods: We retrospectively analyzed multicenter data of 789 patients who underwent infrainguinal revascularization for CLTI between 2015 and 2021. The end points were 2-year overall survival (OS), amputation-free survival (AFS), limb salvage (LS), and postoperative complications., Results: A total of 90 patients aged ≥ 80 years and 200 patients aged < 80 years underwent bypass surgery (BSX), and 205 patients aged ≥ 80 years and 294 patients aged < 80 years underwent endovascular therapy (EVT). Before the propensity score matching, multivariate analyses showed that age ≥ 80 years, lower body mass index and serum albumin levels, nonambulatory status, and end-stage renal disease were independent risk factors for 2-year mortality in the BSX and EVT groups. After propensity score matching, the 2-year OS was better in the < 80 years cohort than in the ≥ 80 years cohort in both the BSX and EVT groups (P = 0.018 and P = 0.035, respectively). There was no difference in the 2-year LS rates between the < 80 years and the ≥ 80 years cohorts in both the BSX and EVT groups (P = 0.621 and P = 0.287, respectively). According to the number of risk factors, except for age ≥ 80 years, there was no difference in the 2-year AFS rates between the < 80 years and ≥ 80 years cohorts for the BSX and EVT groups with 0-1 risk factor (P = 0.957 and P = 0.655, respectively). However, the 2-year AFS rate was poor, especially in the ≥ 80 years cohort in the BSX with 2-4 risk factors (P = 0.015). The Clavien-Dindo ≥ IV complication rates tended to be higher in the ≥ 80 years cohort than in the < 80 years cohort only in the BSX with 2-4 risk factors (P = 0.056)., Conclusions: Patients with CLTI aged ≥ 80 years had poorer OS than those aged < 80 years. However, there was no difference in LS between the ≥ 80 years and < 80 years cohorts in both the BSX and EVT groups. Although age ≥ 80 years was associated with poorer OS, patients with 0-1 risk factor may benefit from revascularization, including BSX, because no difference was observed in AFS or Clavien-Dindo ≥ IV complications., (Copyright © 2024 Elsevier Inc.
