The outcomes assessed were primary and cumulative patency at 6\u00a0weeks, 6, 12 and 24\u00a0months. Multinomial logistic regression to account for confounding variables age, gender, procedure, side, anticoagulant, vessel size and co-morbidities was performed.

Endovascular intervention rate becomes divergent at 5\u00a0months, with the steepest difference between 6 and 12 months. Comparative endovascular intervention rates between BCF and RCF were 20% vs. 31% at 6\u00a0months, 41% vs. 40% at 12\u00a0months and 40% vs. 49% at 24 months.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>RCF seem to have significantly lower patency at 6 months and have higher endovascular intervention rates compared to BCF.
