  1. 1. Acute limb ischaemia : Treatment, outcome and time trends

    Författare :Olivia Grip; Martin Bjöck; Clark Zeebregts; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Acute limb ischaemi; Treatment; Open revascularisation; Endovascular revascularisation; Outcome; Surgery; Kirurgi;

    Sammanfattning : Acute limb ischaemia (ALI) is a frequent emergency associated with high rates of amputation and death. Traditionally, patients with ALI were treated with open surgical removal of the occlusion or bypass surgery. During the past few decades, new endovascular techniques developed. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Outcomes of invasive treatment in chronic limb-threatening ischaemia

    Författare :Angelica Perlander; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; chronic limb-threatening ischaemia; health-related quality of life; cost effectiveness; bypass; endovascular; amputation-free survival; critical limb ischaemia;

    Sammanfattning : Background In chronic limb-threatening ischaemia (CLTI), obstruction of the arterial blood flow causes ischaemic rest pain, ulcers or gangrene in the lower extremities. Patients with CLTI have a substantial risk of amputation unless the blood flow is improved, which requires invasive treatment through either open surgery or endovascular intervention. LÄS MER

  4. 3. CRITICAL LIMB ISCHAEMIA WITH SPECIAL EMPHASIS ON EPIDEMIOLOGY, INFLAMMATORY MARKERS AND CARDIAC FUNCTION

    Sammanfattning : In Conclusion Paper I. In patients undergoing aorto-iliac angiography, no effects of the procedure were seen upon inflammatory mediators. On the other hand, angiography influenced markers of platelet activation in these patients. Paper II. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Chronic limb-threatening ischaemia - Prognosis after intervention

    Författare :Erik Baubeta Fridh; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Amputation; arterial occlusive disease; atherosclerosis; magnetic resonance angiography; mortality; peripheral arterial disease; comorbidity;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction: Lower-extremity arterial disease (LEAD) is a major health problem worldwide. Chronic limb-threatening ischaemia (CLTI) is the most severe manifestation of LEAD. Open or endovascular recanalization is recommended for most patients with CLTI. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Infrainguinal Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty in Limbs with Severe Lower Limb Ischaemia

    Författare :Anne-Marie Löfberg; Wojciech Cwikiel; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Oncology; infrainguinal; chronic ischaemia; percutaneous transluminal angioplasty; duplex; bypass grafts; Onkologi; Oncology; Onkologi; radiologi; Radiology;

    Sammanfattning : Infrainguinal bypass grafting is an established method in the treatment of patients with femoropopliteal and crural occlusive disease leading to critical lower limb ischaemia (CLI). However, complications related to surgical procedure are not negligible and percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) has emerged as an alternative. LÄS MER
