ABSTRACT
Peripheral arterial occlusive disease is a frequent and chronic vascular disorder mostly affecting the lower limbs and caused by fibrous plaques in arteries that can result in stenoses and thrombi. Patients suffering from this condition show a high risk for cardiovascular complications of the complete arterial vascular system, especially post-procedural. Thus, there is a need to optimize anti-thrombotic therapy. Data on multiple antiplatelet aggregation therapy including new drug classes are expected in the coming years. In addition, recent studies showed that direct oral anticoagulation provided clinical advantages combined with a reasonable safety profile. Management of risk factors such as overweight and nicotine and correction of metabolic disorders are not to be ignored and the background to further therapy. All treating physicians should be aware of these aspects to guarantee an optimal care and motivation of their patients.
