Peripheral artery disease is an abnormality that restricts the blood flow of arteries to the arms, stomach, and commonly, legs. Deposition of fatty substances on the wall of the arteries thickens them and restricts blood flow. Symptoms of peripheral artery disease include numbness in the legs, pain, and others.
The incidence of peripheral artery disease has been growing rapidly worldwide. Patients often prefer revascularization as it is a better treatment approach. Surgical revascularizations and surgical grafting have been carried out for a long time.
