Predictive Factors of Amputation in Infra Inguinal Vascular Injuries

Predictive Factors of Amputation in Infra Inguinal Vascular Injuries

1. Abstract
1.1. Background
Infra-inguinal vascular injuries (IIVI) are emergencies involving both functional and vital prognosis. The choice between saving the limb or doing a first-line amputation is difficult even for an experienced surgeon. The aims of this work are to analyze early outcomes in our center and to identify predictive factors for amputation.
