Improving the level of amputation of the lower extremity after therapeutic endovascular intervention for patients with critical limb ischemia
Methods: We conducted a comparative study of two groups of patients suffering from arterial insufficiency of the lower extremities, and the decision taken to amputate above the knee for both of them. A group of patients selected for a therapeutic peripheral intervention, and the effect of this intervention in improving the level of amputation studied and calculated statistically. The study cond...

In the paper, authors made a retrospective study on 189 limbs wi...
متن کاملTwo-year life expectancy in patients with critical limb ischemia.
OBJECTIVES This study sought to estimate the 2-year life expectancy (2YLE) (estimated survival rate >50% at 2 years) in patients with critical limb ischemia (CLI) using the risk score based on predictors of all-cause mortality within 2 years. BACKGROUND It has been reported that 2YLE is one of the important factors in the decision making of the revascularization strategy. However, little is k...

[Subjects and Methods] Twelve patients who were eligible for the 2 months of consecutive evaluation of the amount of physical activity were enrolled in the study (men:...
متن کاملCell Therapy in Patients with Critical Limb Ischemia
Critical limb ischemia (CLI) represents the most advanced stage of peripheral arterial obstructive disease (PAOD) with a severe obstruction of the arteries which markedly reduces blood flow to the extremities and has progressed to the point of severe rest pain and/or even tissue loss. Recent therapeutic strategies have focused on restoring this balance in favor of tissue survival using exogenou...
