- Peripheral Angioplasty and Stenting:For patients with significant arterial blockages causing symptoms or limb-threatening ischemia, we may recommend minimally invasive procedures such as angioplasty and stenting to restore blood flow and alleviate symptoms.
- Peripheral Bypass Surgery: In cases where angioplasty and stenting are not feasible or effective, we may consider surgical bypass procedures to create new routes for blood flow around blocked arteries and improve limb perfusion.
- Wound Care and Limb Salvage:We provide specialized wound care and limb salvage techniques for patients with PAD-related ulcers or critical limb ischemia, with the goal of preventing amputation and promoting healing.

1. What is peripheral artery disease (PAD)?Peripheral artery disease is a condition characterized by the narrowing or blockage of arteries in the extremities, most commonly the legs, due to atherosclerosis, which can lead to reduced blood flow, claudication (leg pain with walking), and increased risk of cardiovascular events.
Risk factors for PAD include smoking, diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, obesity, sedentary lifestyle, advancing age, family history of cardiovascular disease, and history of other vascular conditions such as coronary artery disease or stroke.
Diagnosis is based on a combination of clinical evaluation, assessment of risk factors, and diagnostic tests such as ankle-brachial index (ABI) measurement, Doppler ultrasound imaging, computed tomography angiography (CTA), magnetic resonance angiography (MRA), or angiography.
The primary goals of treatment for PAD are to relieve symptoms, improve quality of life, prevent disease progression, reduce the risk of cardiovascular events, and preserve limb function and integrity.
