Patients with critical limb ischemia (CLI) not suitable for revascularization: the “dark side” of CLI

Vascular Investigation and Therapy, 2021
Critical limb ischemia (CLI) is the most advanced stage of peripheral arterial disease (PAD). Its prognosis is poor, with high rates of limb amputation and cardiovascular mortality.

Upper limb ischemia in a newborn following difficult delivery

Journal of Pediatric Surgery Case Reports, 2020
Neonatal limb ischemia is a very rare condition. The lower limb ischemia is more common than upper limb ischemia in incidence. The limb ischemia in such an age group urges for top urgent proper management.

Modern methods of stimulation of angiogenesis in patients with critical limb ischemia (review)

Journal of Education, Health and Sport, 2017
The term "critical ischemia of extremities" (critical limb ischemia) was first introduced by P.R.F. Bell in 1982 to refer to a group of diseases accompanied by pain in the legs at rest, trophic ulcers and distal necroses of the lower limbs.

Endothelial Progenitor Cells May Be Related to Major Amputation after Angioplasty in Patients with Critical Limb Ischemia

Cells, 2023
Background: Critical limb ischemia represents an advanced stage of peripheral arterial disease. Angioplasty improves blood flow to the limb; however, some patients progress irreversibly to lower limb amputation.

Endovascular treatment of critical lower limb ischemia caused by giant cell arteritis

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2019
Giant cell arteritis (GCA) is a well-known cause of cranial vasculitis often presenting with headache and jaw claudication. Here we report the case of a woman suffering GCA who presented with critical lower limb ischemia.
