Treatment strategies have evolved from traditional surgical revascularization to minimally invasive endovascular techniques. Recently, hybrid procedures combining surgical and endovascular approaches have emerged as a promising alternative to optimize patient outcomes. This review compares the efficacy, benefits, and limitations of these treatment modalities in PAD management. A comprehensive analysis of recent randomized controlled trials, cohort studies, and systematic reviews was conducted using PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science. Key metrics, including patency rates, complication profiles, amputation-free survival, and patient-reported outcomes, were evaluated. Findings suggest that surgical revascularization remains the gold standard for complex PAD cases due to superior long-term patency, despite higher perioperative risks. Endovascular interventions, such as angioplasty and stenting, offer lower short-term complications and faster recovery but are associated with higher restenosis rates. Hybrid procedures provide an alternative for high-risk patients and complex lesions, integrating the advantages of both techniques. Technological advancements, including drug-coated devices and precision imaging, continue to refine treatment outcomes. The choice of optimal PAD treatment depends on lesion complexity, patient comorbidities, and durability requirements. While surgical approaches provide long-lasting results, endovascular techniques offer less invasive solutions with lower immediate risks. Hybrid strategies bridge these approaches, improving outcomes in select cases. Future research should focus on long-term comparative studies and personalized treatment models to enhance clinical decision-making in PAD management.}, number={2}, publisher={Çukurova Üniversitesi}, organization={No external funding was received for the preparation of this manuscript.}
