Overview
Amputation and death are the most common consequence of critical limb ischemia/ chronic limb-threatening ischemia. [1] Gas gangrene has a higher fatality rate, ranging from 25% to 100%, if treatment is inadequate or delayed. Increased age, several comorbidities present, and involvement of trunk lead to a poor prognosis. [2]
Complications
- Amputation and death are the most common consequence of critical limb ischemia/ chronic limb-threatening ischemia. [1]
- Below-the-knee amputations lead to a higher ambulatory rate than above-the-knee amputations.[3]
Prognosis
- There is a possibility of recurrence of critical limb ischemia/ chronic limb-threatening ischemia.
- Follow-up after revascularization procedures is needed for at least two years.[4]
- Gas gangrene has higher fatality rate, ranging from 25% to 100%, if treatment is inadequate or delayed.
- Increased age, several comorbidities present, and involvement of trunk lead to a poor prognosis. [2]
