Cases and resources in vascular techniques

This recent study examined illness trajectories in patients aged 50 and older who underwent lower limb revascularisation for peripheral artery disease in England. The research identified variations in patient outcomes based on age, admission type, and PAD severity.

Patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) face significant cardiovascular and limb risks, necessitating tailored antithrombotic strategies. A global multidisciplinary work group reviewed current evidence, highlighting the varied responses to antiplatelets and anticoagulants, the importance of balancing benefits and bleeding risks, and providing clinical scenarios and recommendations for future research.

Management of acute limb graft thrombosis can be challenging, especially for an obese patient with Balthazar E severe pancreatitis and ARDS...
