Aortobifemoral bypass is the preferred method of bilateral inflow revascularization, with axillobifemoral bypass reserved for high-risk patients. Hybrid surgery in the form of femorofemoral bypass and retrograde endovascular aortoiliac intervention is increasingly being used to achieve the same goal. This study compared the perioperative outcomes of hybrid surgery with traditional surgery for bilateral inflow revascularization.
