Overview
Amputation and death are the most common consequence of critical limb ischemia/ chronic limb-threatening ischemia. [1] Gas gangrene has higher fatality rate, ranging from 25% too 100% if treatment is inadequate or delayed. Increased age, several comorbidities present, and involvement of trunk lead to a poor prognosis. [2]
