Overview
Peripheral artery occlusive disease is commonly divided in the Fontaine stages, introduced by Dr René Fontaine in 1954[1]

Peripheral artery occlusive disease is commonly divided in the Fontaine stages, introduced by Dr René Fontaine in 1954:[2]

- II: severe pain on walking relatively shorter distances (intermittent claudication)
- III: pain while resting
- IV: tissue loss (gangrene)
