The vascular damage includes non-occlusive microangiopathy and macroangiopathy. Diabetic foot wounds are responsible for 5-10% of the cases of major or minor amputations. In fact, the risk of amputation of the lower limbs is 15-20% higher in diabetic popul...
متن کاملRevascularization for foot salvage in diabetic critical foot ischaemia.

متن کاملSurgical revascularization versus amputation for peripheral vascular disease in dialysis patients: a cohort study
BACKGROUND Surgical treatment of peripheral vascular disease (PVD) in dialysis patients is controversial. METHODS We examined the post-operative morbidity and mortality of surgical revascularization or amputation for PVD in a retrospective analysis of United States Renal Data System. Propensity scores for undergoing amputation were derived from a multivariable logistic regression model of amp...
