Clinical Challenge: When there is concomitant diabetes
Situation
- Patient has diabetes and requires peripheral revascularisation or AV access
- A viable saphenous vein is not available or an AV fistula cannot be constructed
Challenge
- Patients with diabetes are
- at high risk for lower limb amputation
- often young and require long-term solutions to vascular and renal ailments
- susceptible to infection
- No synthetic prosthesis can match the performance of a vein for peripheral revascularisation or an AVF for AV access
- Lower long-term patency
- Susceptible to infection
