Critical limb ischemia (CLI), the most advanced form of peripheral artery disease (PAD), carries grave implications with regard to morbidity and mortality. Within 1 year of CLI diagnosis, 40% to 50% of diabetics will experience an amputation, and 20% to 25% will die. Management is optimally directed at increasing blood flow to the affected extremity to

, 2009 At the beginning of the third millennium the studies on the epidemiology of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) led to the conclusion that we are facing a very serious public health threat, that of a pandemic of cardiovascular disease. In this context, peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and its components [i.e., intermittent claudication (IC), critical limb ...

Patients with CLI have a poor prognosis, the estimated 3-year probability of mortality being 35.1%. As a result, preference to less burdensome endovascular treatment should be given, provided the same levels of symptomatic improvement can be achieved as with open surgery.

Critical limb ischemia refers to the clinical state of advanced arterial occlusive disease, placing an extremity at risk for gangrene and limb loss. Critical limb ischemia has 2 broad clinical subcategories that are vital to differentiate: acute limb ischemia and chronic arterial occlusive disease.

Critical limb ischemia (CLI) represents the most severe manifestation of peripheral arterial disease and is defined as the presence of chronic ischemic rest pain, ischemic ulcers, or gangrene attributable to objectively proven arterial occlusive disease.

Critical and Acute Limb Ischemia
Angiology, 2012Some patients with peripheral arterial disease may present with critical limb ischemia, a condition associated with high rates of morbidity and mortality. Early diagnosis and effective medical therapy and revascularization are indicated to avoid amputation and reduce mortality.

Endovascular therapy for critical limb ischemia
Expert Review of Cardiovascular Therapy, 2015Critical limb ischemia (CLI) represents an advanced disease state of peripheral arterial disease. It manifests as lower extremity ischemic rest pain or ischemic skin lesions leading to ulceration or gangrene. Patients with CLI often have multiple medical comorbidities and a 1-year mortality rate of 25% and a 1-year amputation rate of 25%. Historically,

Management of chronic critical limb ischemia
Cardiology Clinics, 2002The patient with CLI is challenging and requires a multi-disciplinary approach to effective management that involves a team of individuals proficient in various aspects of vascular disease. Fig. 4 details the approach at the University of Michigan's comprehensive vascular medicine program.

Matrix Metalloproteinases in Critical Limb Ischemia
Journal of Surgical Research, 2008Critical limb ischemia (CLI) is most commonly the result of arterial occlusive disease, specifically atherosclerotic plaque formation and rupture within the infrainguinal arteries. The physiological response to CLI is partial limb reperfusion via the distinct processes of angiogenesis and arteriogenesis.
