Abstract

- Background: Pharmaco-mechanical thrombolysis (PMT) has emerged as a treatment option in patients with acute lower limb ischemia (ALI), especially Rutherford IIb (motor deficit) for rapid revascularization, but supportive data is scarce. The aim of the present study was to compare the effects of thrombolysis, complications, and outcomes of PMT first versus catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) first in a large cohort of patients with ALI. Methods: All endovascular thrombolytic/thrombectomy events in patients with ALI performed between January 1st, 2009, and December 31st, 2018 (n = 347) were included. Successful thrombolysis/thrombectomy was defined as complete or partial lysis. Reasons for using PMT were described. Complications such as major bleeding, distal embolization, and new onset of renal impairment, and major amputation and mortality at 30 days were compared between PMT (AngioJet) first and CDT first groups in a multivariable logistic regression model with adjustment for age, gender, atrial fibrillation, and Rutherford IIb. Results: The most common reason for initial use of PMT was the need for rapid revascularization, and the most common reason for use of PMT after CDT was the insufficient effect of CDT. Presentation of Rutherford IIb ALI was more common in the PMT first group (36.2% vs. 22.5%, respectively, P = 0.027). Among the 58 patients receiving PMT first, 36 (62.1%) were terminated within a single session of therapy without need of CDT. The median duration of thrombolysis was shorter (P < 0.001) for the PMT first group (n = 58) compared to the CDT first group (n = 289) (4.0 hr vs. 23.0 hr, respectively). There was no significant difference in amount of tissue plasminogen activator given, successful thrombolysis/thrombectomy (86.2% and 84.8%), major bleeding (15.5% and 18.7%), distal embolization (25.9% and 16.6%), major amputation or mortality at 30-days (13.8% and 7.7%) in the PMT first compared to the CDT first group, respectively. The proportion of new onset of renal impairment was higher in the PMT first compared to the CDT first group (10.3% vs. 3.8%, respectively), and the increased odds (odds ratio 3.57, 95% confidence interval 1.22–10.41) were maintained in the adjusted model. In Rutherford IIb ALI, no difference in rate of successful thrombolysis/thrombectomy (76.2% and 73.8%), complications or 30-day outcomes was found between PMT first (n = 21) and CDT (n = 65) first group. Conclusions: PMT first appears to be a good treatment alternative to CDT in patients with ALI, including Rutherford IIb. The found renal function deterioration in the PMT first group needs to be evaluated in a prospective, preferably randomized trial.
