RESUMEN
Extremitovascular arterial ischemic disease (lower extremity peripheral arterial disease - PAD) is an important manifestation of systemic atherosclerosis and other arterial diseases of vascular system. The lower the ankle-brachial pressure index, the greater the risk of serious acute instable organovascular events (e. g. acute myocardial infarction, stroke). Complex prevention and treatment of extremitovascular arterial disease is discussed in this article. Angiology/vascular medicine is the fastest growing field of internal medicine.
