Acute Limb Ischemia

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 1992
Acute ischemia of the extremity may be due to arterial occlusion from spontaneous thrombosis, embolus, arterial bypass graft thrombosis, trauma, or spasm. The presence of occlusion or stenosis can be determined noninvasively with the use of duplex Doppler ultrasonography.

Critical Limb Ischemia

Annals of Vascular Surgery, 2000
Critical limb ischemia (CLI) is defined as a condition that endangers all or part of the limb if no radical improvement in blood flow can be achieved by means of surgery, interventional radiology, or medical treatment163 (Figure 42.1).

Acute Limb Ischemia

Techniques in Vascular and Interventional Radiology, 2009
Acute limb ischemia occurs when there is an abrupt interruption of blood flow to an extremity usually because of either embolic or thrombotic vascular occlusion. When profound ischemia ensues, this represents an emergency in which restoration of perfusion through early intervention can lead to limb salvage, whereas delay may result in significant ...

Critical Limb Ischemia

Surgical Clinics of North America, 2013
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 [PDF]

open access: possible, 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 ...

Acute Limb Ischemia Interventions

Interventional Cardiology Clinics, 2020
Acute limb ischemia (ALI) is a sudden decrease in limb perfusion that threatens limb viability. Using the Rutherford classification, limbs can be categorized as threatened but viable, or irreversibly damaged, which aids clinicians in selecting appropriate therapy.

Severe Upper Limb Ischemia

Archives of Surgery, 1980
Severe upper limb ischemia is uncommon, and patterns typical of lower limb ischemia are seldom seen. The conditions of 31 patients with actual or threatened gangrene or severe disability were evaluated from 1969 through 1978. Causes of ischemia included emboli, arteriosclerotic occlusions, trauma, thoracic outlet compression, and small-artery ...

Revascularization for Severe Limb Ischemia

Archives of Surgery, 1980
Patients with rest pain or tissue necrosis (generally correlated with a tibial-brachial pressure index of less than 0.25) have a high probability of limb loss unless revascularization is done. These problems are usually associated with extensive and multiple segments of anatomical occlusive disease. A review of 359 patients with such problems indicates

Upper Limb Ischemia

2014
Upper limb ischemia (ULI) is relatively infrequent when compared to lower limb and accounts for less than 5 % of all extremity ischemia. ULI can be related to a broad spectrum of different etiologies that might require specific therapeutic interventions.

Induced Angiogenesis for Limb Ischemia

Clinical Orthopaedics & Related Research, 2003
Between May 1990 and April 2000, 61 patients with severe occlusive arterial disease (44 with thromboangiitis obliterans, 13 with atherosclerosis, and four with diabetes mellitus), who had not responded to previous nonsurgical and surgical treatment and had chronic critical ischemia in the lower limbs, had corticotomy near major neurovascular bundles ...
