Clinical Case Spotlight on Early Vascular Screening

In the arena of endovascular intervention, early diagnosis of Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) can be a game-changer. This month, I’m presenting a case that emphasizes this critical point.

• Clinical Background:

  74-year-old male

  PMH: PAD, DM2, HTN, HLD, CKD Stage 3

• Clinical Presentation:

  Severe claudication, right lower limb

  Rest pain in the right lower limb

  ABI: 0.66

• Clinical Findings:

  Arterial US: 90% stenosis in right SFA

  Confirmatory Angiography

• Interventional Strategy:

  Atherectomy and balloon angioplasty, right SFA

  Excellent post-procedure outcomes

• Clinical Implications:

  Prompt vascular screening can dramatically improve patient outcomes and quality of life.
