Preface
I have dedicated much of my career to CLTI limb salvage/limb preservation, and as those involved know, it is an immense effort to manage and effectively help these patients. Nothing brings more personal satisfaction than helping a patient continue to walk on their own limbs, especially when they were told the only option is to have a major amputation. This is not always possible for many reasons, rightfully or wrongfully.
The contributing comorbidities, patient access to care, disparities in man­agement and collaboration, as well as the lack of complete understanding of how to properly treat these patients, all make this a herculean effort.
In my training, and still to this day, what I have found most disheartening in this space is the vast piecemeal nature of resources and information, dis­agreements and politics between specialties for patient ownership and man­agement, and the lack of standards in revascularization outcomes. We are a far cry away from having a proper system in place with global guidelines and standards to give all patients the right to a safe and good outcome, and to be armed with all the right information. While we are slowly seeing changes with a few large-scale trails, we are still left with many unanswered ques­tions, with many people utilizing them to claim ownership of disease pro­cesses; nonetheless there is hope. I also realized that when I tell a trainee to look up a topic regarding an upcoming case or clinic patient, there is no sound starting point to get an overall global perspective of the topic and disease process, after which then they can further go onto exploring the minutia when desired.
So, with all this in mind, I envisioned this book as a single source of pearls, examples, and explanations of everything from A to Z related to limb preser­vation in CLTI, from global experts that I have had the pleasure of meeting and interacting with, as a jump off point for anyone interested. By including endovascular and surgical revascularization specialists from all disciplines, as well as experts in podiatry, vascular medicine, infectious disease, and plas­tic surgery, I intended to demonstrate the collaborative nature that must exist if we intend to give our best to all patients. In the end, no one person or spe­cialty can help all patients dealing with PAD and CLTI, but together, we can impact a much larger population.
My sincerest thanks to my mentors and friends that have supported me in the past and on this endeavor. This also would not have been possible without the impressive work by Dr. Aesha Patel, who as a current resident managed to organize, edit, and help facilitate its formulation. It is truly inspiring to see

that there is a bright future ahead with trainees that can carry the torch that we all hopefully have, and still preserve what is pure and innocent about health­care. To my family, my biggest cheerleaders in life and trusted source of motivation, hopefully always know my undying love and thanks.

Introduction

Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) is a progres­sive circulation disorder caused by narrowing, occlusion, or otherwise abnormal ow in the peripheral blood vessels, most commonly affect­ing the legs and feet. The affected vessels include the arteries, veins, and/or lymphatic system. In the arterial system, the progression is part of the Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) spectrum, and in the Venous system, part of Venous Insufciency. PVD presents with a multitude of symptoms, often leading to poor quality of life, exacerbation of a patient’s comorbidities such as coronary artery disease and stroke, and unfortunately can result in amputations.
PAD affects more than 200 million people worldwide and has become increasingly recognized as an important cause of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality with rising prevalence throughout the world [1]. It is a manifestation of atherosclerotic disease, dened as plaque buildup and loss of elasticity of the arterial walls, leading to narrowing and stenosis of the vasculature. Other etiologies can be from acute embolic disease or vasculitis. The most common risk factors include smoking, diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, chronic kidney disease, obesity, and age. There is a broad spectrum of clinical presentation, ranging from asymptomatic to

intermittent claudication, to rest pain and tissue loss. The most severe presentation is Critical Limb Ischemia (CLI) or Chronic Limb Threatening Ischemia (CLTI), which is dened as PAD with rest pain or tissue loss for greater than 2 weeks. CLTI has a mortality risk of 24% over the rst year and 60% over 5 years [2]. After lung cancer, CLTI is responsible for the most deaths over 5 years in the United States [3]. This is why we, along with many operators refer to this as “arterial cancer,” so as to raise the appro­priate level of concern within the medical com­munity and in the public. Historically, PAD has been understated compared to coronary artery disease and cerebrovascular disease. However, with substantial evidence showing its direct links to heart attack and stroke, its high morbidity and mortality rates, as well as the signicant func­tional decline and disability of patients suffering from CLI/CLTI, it has become of increasing importance in recent years.
Similarly, chronic venous disease, referred to as Venous Insufciency, and Lymphedema have long-term deleterious effects on the lower extremities of patients. They are some of the big­gest contributors to healthcare costs due to the prolonged and progressively debilitating nature of their processes, which relies often on continu­ous wound care. Pain, numerous surgeries, hospi­talizations due to recurrent VenoThromboembolism (VTE) and infections also plague this population. Additionally, many

patients with non-healing wounds of the lower extremities may have a mixed disease pattern of PAD and Venous Insufciency with or without lymphedema, which can make management incredibly difcult for providers, as well as for patients and their families.
To succeed, Limb Preservation requires a mul­tidisciplinary approach, that can direct patient treatment with a combination of wound care, reconstructive surgery, medical optimization, and revascularization. In recent years, with rising awareness, limb preservation programs have been increasing across the country. These pro­grams offer a multidisciplinary approach to care for patients at risk for amputation with the com­bined goal of limb salvage. This is still few and far between to make a signicant impact as of yet. Many reasons exist for this, including institu­tional, nancial, political, specialty-based soci­etal and other external factors, which detract from the main goal we should all be pursuing, which is to improve the quality of life of our patients. Additionally, the vast quantity of topics related to managing PVD patients and Limb Preservation can be daunting for anyone, particu­larly for trainees of all specialties involved in or interested in this space to learn. It has been dif­cult to nd credible sources of information in one place, in order to jump start their understanding of the vital topics that need to be grasped. This is one of the main reasons this book was formu­lated, to bring together many of the leading experts in Limb Preservation, particularly those who actually perform the types of cases they speak of, which carry the highest merit, and develop an abbreviated, up-to-date source of guidance for all involved.
In this handbook, we discuss all aspects of peripheral vascular disease and limb preserva­tion. With a diverse authors list from across the globe, consisting of endovascular specialists, sur­geons, podiatrists, vascular medicine, and infec­tious disease specialists, this handbook will serve as a guideline to the comprehensive care and management of limb preservation for all disci­plines. We begin with understanding the different wound types and evaluating the underlying causes that have been typically underdiagnosed and undermanaged in these patients, as well as
the management of those underlying causes. We then further elaborate on wound care manage­ment as well as proper diagnosis with various non-invasive imaging modalities. From there, we dive deep into the treatment of arterial, venous, and lymphatic therapies. This includes treatment algorithms, unique and complex approaches, technique tips and tricks, possible complications and how to manage them, as well as cutting-edge options. We conclude by covering how to con­tinue evaluating the wounds post-procedurally and in long-term follow-up, when reintervention or surgery is needed, and how to tackle the highly involved medication management of these patients.
All these aspects will play a signicant role in saving these patients’ limbs. It has been well dem­onstrated that succeeding in limb preservation and keeping these patients alive longer requires a mul­tidisciplinary effort, and long-term management of these complex patients. Not all major amputa­tions can be prevented, and some are needed to save a patient’s life (such as grossly infected/wet gangrene), however far too many limbs are lost due to inadequate prevention, management, and intervention. By providing a multidisciplinary comprehensive review of the evaluation, manage­ment, and treatment of peripheral vascular disease for limb preservation, we hope to empower the physician with the knowledge and tools needed to treat this important disease.
We hope this can be the essential go-to hand­book for all those involved in limb preservation, from wound care to wound closure.
