Abstract:
Objective:To explore the short-term effect of drug-coated balloon angioplasty (DCBA) and common plain old balloon angioplasty (POBA) in the isolated popliteal artery chronic total occlusion (CTO), and to analyze the factors affecting the postoperative primary patency rate.Methods:A retrospective cohort study approach was used in this study. A total of 42 isolated popliteal CTO patients admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical University from January 2020 to June 2022 were divided into two groups according to their different balloons: 24 as POBA group and 18 as DCBA group. The primary patency rate of target lesions, the clinically-driven target lesion revascularization(CD-TLR) rate, amputation and toe amputation rate, and the improvement of ankle-brachial index (ABI) and Rutherford grade at 6 and 12 months after surgery were compared.Measurement data with normal distribution was expressed as xˉ± s and means between two groups were compared using independent samples t-test. The percentage of counting data was calculated, and the rate between groups was compared by χ2 test or Fisher's exact probability method. Kaplan-Meier survival curve method was used to plot the survival curves of primary patency rate and CD-TLR free rate at 12 months after surgery, and Log rank test was used to compare the differences between groups . Univariate log rank test and multivariate Cox regression was used to analyze the factors affecting the primary patency rate at 12 months in patients with isolated popliteal CTO. Results:12 months after surgery, 4 patients in the DCBA group experienced lumen restenosis or occlusion while 12 patients in the POBA group experienced lumen restenosis or occlusion. The cumulative primary patency rate of target lesions in the DCBA group was higher than that in the POBA group (Log-rank χ2=4.03, P=0.045). ABI in the DCBA group at 6 and 12 months was greater than that in the POBA group [(0.91±0.11) vs (0.83±0.09), (0.84±0.11) vs (0.70±0.12), t=2.40, P=0.021, t=3.64 and P=0.001].There were no significant difference in cumulative CD-TLR exemption, amputation and amputation at 12 months, and Rutherford grade at 6 and 12 months for both groups(all P>0.05). The results of univariate analysis showed that DCBA as surgical method, hypertension and coronary heart disease were the influencing factors of the primary patency rate after chronic occlusion of the isolated popliteal artery (all P<0.05). The results of multivariate Cox regression analysis indicated that DCBA as surgical method was a protective factor for primary patency at 12 months (odds ratio =0.31,95% confidence interval: 0.10~0.870., P=0.038), while hypertension was an independent risk factor( OR=5.63,95% confidence interval: 1.54~20.56, P=0.009). Conclusions:The cumulative primary patency rate of target lesions 12 months after isolated popliteal CTO was higher than that of POBA. DCBA as surgical method was a protective factor for primary patency rate 12 months in patients with isolated popliteal CTO, while hypertension was an independent risk factor.
