Methods: Between March 2008 and April 2016, 86 patients who underwent endovascular treatment and 17 patients who underwent hybrid treatment for peripheral arterial disease in our clinic were retrospectively analyzed. The treatment approaches, success of treatments, complications and outcomes of these patients were studied.

Results: No mortality was seen during the procedures. Following the procedure, the patients were hospitalized in the intensive care unit under standard heparin treatment for six hours at least. Anticoagulation was maintained with low-molecular-weighted heparin for three days, followed by dual oral antiaggregant (acetylsalicylic acid 100 mg + clopidogrel 75 mg). Repeated Doppler ultrasonography revealed no in-stent thrombosis or restenosis at the site of ballooning during hospitalization. None of the patients with normal renal functions preoperatively experienced severe renal failure. Although nearly all femorodistal interventions were performed in the antegrade way, none of the patients had bleeding complications at the site of intervention. All patients were discharged within 1 to 16 days.

Conclusion: Endovascular and hybrid modalities are safe and comfortable in the treatment of peripheral arterial diseases for vascular surgeons having a hybrid room.
