Abstract

Becoming to aging society era, numbers of patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) have been continuously increasing. PAD is a presentation of atherosclerotic diseases. Most of the time, the patients are accompanied with underlying diseases that increase risks of atherosclerosis. Treatments of PAD essentially require multidisciplinary team supports. Smoking cessation, controlled exercise program, medical control for underlying diseases must be performed at the beginning of treatments. Revascularizations are indicated in the patients with unbearable symptoms and limb threatening ischemia. The reason why modern endovascular techniques have expeditiously been grown up is its advantage of less invasive and not to burn the bridge for future surgical bypass. However, its drawbacks are higher reintervention rates, contrast-induced nephropathy, radiation exposure, and lower long-term patency.
