摘要

Objective: The perceived functional benefit of below-knee amputation (BKA) must be carefully weighed against the need for potential reinterventions. This study sought to examine the contemporary clinical and functional outcomes of patients undergoing BKA in the endovascular era. Methods: All patients who underwent BKA from January 2008 to December 2014 at a single tertiary medical center were retrospectively reviewed. Demographics, comorbidities, ambulation status, and transcutaneous oximetry (TcPO2) values were recorded. Study end points included freedom from conversion to above-knee amputation (AKA), freedom from conversion to AKA or death, BKA healing, and ambulation. Statistical modeling was performed to determine associations with BKA failure. Results: Over the study interval, 130 limbs underwent BKA in 120 patients. Transcutaneous oximetry studies were obtained in 65% (n = 85). Thirty-eight percent (n = 46) of all BKA patients went on to heal and ambulate. Twenty-five percent (n = 33) required reintervention, 24 with conversion to AKA, and 9 with BKA revision. One-year freedom from conversion to AKA was 76% and was decreased among those with lower TcPO2 levels (60% TcPO2 < 40 vs 81% TcPO2 >= 40; P - .04). One-year composite freedom from conversion to AKA/death was 60% and was decreased among those with lower TcPO2 readings (39% TcPO2 < 40 vs 69% TcPO2 >= 40; P = .01). Conclusion: Despite a perceived functional bias toward knee salvage at the time of major amputation, most patients failed to postoperatively ambulate. Those with decreased TcPO2 levels (< 40 mm Hg) have a 2-fold higher risk of AKA conversion or death, while nearly one-fourth of all BKA patients will succumb to the same fate irrespective of TcPO2. This suggests that many BKA patients in the endovascular era fail to derive the perceived benefit of knee salvage at the time of their index amputation. These findings highlight the need for careful patient selection and for a shared decision-making model in this frail population.
