Pedal arch patency and not direct-angiosome revascularization predicts outcomes of endovascular interventions in diabetic patients with critical limb ischemia.

CONCLUSIONS: DAR is not a predictor of good outcomes in diabetic patients undergoing endovascular procedure. Pedal arch patency seems to be a key factor to obtain good outcomes in terms of wound healing, and limb salvage. PMID: 28541016 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
