Abstract

Objectives: Diabetic patients are prone to early development of vasculopathy, resulting in lower limb ischemia, which can lead to non-healing ulcers, foot infection, loss of limb, and even death. These patients need revascularization of their limb either using endovascular or open surgical techniques.Not all patients are suitable for endovascular treatment warranting the open surgical revascularization techniques.
