Abstract
Peripheral Arterial Occlusive Disease (PAOD) with bilateral iliac artery occlusion is one of the major causes of major amputation and morbidity in the elderly. Standard revascularization procedures are available worldwide but nowadays hybrid interventions are coming in a big way for PAOD patients, which provide the efficiency and convenience of a single-stage revascularization. In this article we will be discussing about hybrid interventions and their outcomes. Most commonly performed hybrid procedures are iliac stenting and femoral endarterectomy.
