Description
What is the best surgical treatment for a vasculopathy with critical limb threatening ischemia? In this episode of Behind the Knife the vascular surgery subspecialty team discusses two pivotal trials (BEST-CLI and BASIL-2) and how the findings of these trials can help answer this question. In this episode, we will discuss the age old question: open bypass versus best endovascular treatment.
Hosts:
Dr. Bobby Beaulieu is an Assistant Professor of Vascular Surgery at the University of Michigan
Dr. Frank Davis is an Assistant Professor of Vascular Surgery at the University of Michigan
Dr. David Schechtman is a Vascular Surgery Fellow at the University of Michigan
Dr. Drew Braet is a PGY-4 Integrated Vascular Surgery Resident at the University of Michigan
Learning Objectives
Review the definition, prevalence, and prognosis of critical limb threatening ischemia
Review basic treatment options for patients with critical limb threatening ischemia
Understand the methodology, findings, limitations, and clinical applications of the BEST-CLI trial
Understand the methodology, findings, limitations, and clinical applications of the BASIL-2 trial
Compare open bypass and best endovascular therapy for patients with critical limb threatening ischemia
