Endovascular vs Surgery in
diabetic foot patients
2. Correct choice of treatment
at the right time
saves life and limbs
avoids unnecessary costs
3. Current scenario
The choice of Endovascular therapy (EVT) first vs surgical bypass for
patients with tissue loss, PAD, and diabetes is currently much debated
A recent comprehensive evidence-based review could find no clear
evidence favouring EVT vs open bypass
No randomized trials have been performed in patients with diabetes
between these two techniques
5. Catheter based interventions
• Advantages
– Effective (limb salvage / symptom relief)
– Non-invasive
– Low Morbidity & Mortality
– Can be repeated
• Disadvantages
– Poor long term patency
– May have to be repeated
– Expensive!

27. A clinical practice guideline by the SVS in collaboration with the
American Podiatric Medical Association and the SVM JVS 2016
In functional patients with long-segment occlusive
disease and a good autologous conduit, bypass is likely to
be preferable
In the setting of tissue loss and diabetes, prosthetic
bypass is inferior to bypass with vein conduit
28. Conclusion
A balanced view would acknowledge that both EVT and open
surgery are important means of revascularization as part of a
comprehensive approach to functional limb salvage in
patients with diabetes
The choice of intervention likely depends on the degree of
ischemia, the extent of arterial disease, the extent of the
wound, the presence or absence of infection, and the
expertise of the practitioner
