Hybrid peripheral revascularization is a surgical procedure that combines traditional open surgery with minimally invasive endovascular techniques to treat peripheral artery disease (PAD). This approach is used for complex cases of PAD where a combination of techniques can provide the most effective treatment. The goal is to restore blood flow to the affected limb, alleviate symptoms like pain and cramping, and prevent complications like tissue necrosis.
Hybrid revascularization is beneficial for high-risk patients, improving recovery time and outcomes while minimizing the invasiveness of the surgery.
