Abstract

The success of the new interventional procedures or other treatment in peripheral vascular disease can best be determined in comparison with the natural history of the disease itself [6]. To study the evolution of peripheral arterial occlusive disease, one needs to know the incidence and clinical presentation of the disease’s characteristics [1]. Besides the evolution of the limb complications from intermittent claudication to severe ischemia, the most important point is the late survival in these patients [2].
