Comparision of the Location and the Number of Stenosis Lesion between Patients with and without Secondary Revasculation
| Variable | Patients without secondary revasculation (n=26) | Patients with secondary revasculation (n=10) | p-value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Location of stenosis lesion | |||
| CIA | 8 (30.8) | 1 (10.0) | 0.392 |
| EIA | 6 (23.1) | 1 (10.0) | 0.645 |
| CFA | 3 (11.5) | 1 (10.0) | >0.999 |
| SFA | 21 (80.8) | 10 (100) | 0.293 |
| PA | 18 (69.2) | 7 (70.0) | >0.999 |
| ATA | 11 (42.3) | 3 (30.0) | 0.706 |
| PTA | 15 (57.7) | 5 (50.0) | 0.723 |
| Peroneal artery | 7 (26.9) | 2 (20.0) | >0.999 |
| Number of stenosis lesion | |||
| 1 | 4 (15.4) | 1 (10.0) | >0.999 |
| ≥2 | 22 (84.6) | 9 (90.0) |
The relations between the prevalences of stenosis in different arterial segments and secondary revascularization were assessed. The prevalence of stenosis ≥50% was evaluated in eight different arterial segments in lesion on legs.
Number of stenosis lesion “1” represents the stenosis of a single artery segment, while “≥2” represents the stenosis of 2 or more artery segments.
CIA: common iliac artery, EIA: external iliac artery, CFA: common femoral artery, SFA: superficial femoral artery, PA: popliteal artery, ATA: anterior tibial artery, PTA: percutaneous transluminal angioplasty.
