  • Beschreibung: <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:sec> <jats:title>Objective</jats:title> <jats:p>To analyze trends and differences of endovascular, surgical and hybrid revascularization approaches and the impact of comorbidity on characteristics, costs, and outcome of in-patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) of the lower extremity.</jats:p> </jats:sec><jats:sec> <jats:title>Methods</jats:title> <jats:p>Analyzing data provided by the Research Data Center of the German Federal Statistical Office, we included all hospitalizations due to PAD Fontaine IIb (Rutherford 2–3) or higher in Germany between 2009–2011 and 2016–2018. According to the individually performed procedures encoded by the Operation and Procedure Classification System, we divided hospitalizations by revascularization procedures into sole endovascular, sole surgical, hybrid, two-step and no revascularization. Patient’s comorbidity was assessed using the linear van Walraven comorbidity score (vWs).</jats:p> </jats:sec><jats:sec> <jats:title>Results</jats:title> <jats:p>1,067,671 hospitalizations (mean age 71.3 ± 11.1 years; 60.1% male) were analyzed. Between 2009–2011 and 2016–2018, reimbursement costs rose by 28.0% from €2.72 billion (€5,350/case) to €3.49 billion (€6,238/case). The share of hospitalizations with any revascularization increased by 8.9% (67.7–73.7%) driven by an increase in two-step (+ 63.3%), hybrid (+ 58.2%) and sole endovascular revascularizations (+ 32.6%), while sole surgical approaches declined (− 18.2%). Hospitalizations of more comorbid patients (vWs ≥ 20) rose by 46.8% (21,444–31,478 cases), showed an overproportionate increase in costs of 124.6% (+ €1,750/case) and were associated with more individual procedures (+ 90.6%).</jats:p> </jats:sec><jats:sec> <jats:title>Conclusions</jats:title> <jats:p>In-patient treatment of PAD patients shows increasing numbers of hybrid and sole endovascular revascularizations and more patients with higher comorbidity, while sole surgical interventions and in-hospital mortality decrease. Consequently, associated costs are surging especially in more comorbid patients due to an increasing number of performed procedures and escalation of therapy.</jats:p> </jats:sec>
