A prognostic risk score for major amputation in dialysis patients with chronic limbthreatening ischemia after endovascular revascularization.
Abstract
Almost 38% of all patients with end-stage chronic kidney disease (CKD) have peripheral arterial disease of the lower limbs that can lead to chronic limb threatening ischemia (CLTI). The aim of this study was to assess the impact of several factors to conduct a stratification of the amputation risk in CKD patients with CLTI receiving endovascular revascularization.
