• Podiatric physicians see great numbers of patients with vascular insufficiency of the lower extremities. Vascular disease may be the cause of their presenting complaints or may be an incidental finding recognized on routine podiatric examination. Each of these situations may require immediate attention. Vascular consultation therefore may be necessary in providing timely and appropriate medical care to podiatric patients. This manuscript discusses various surgical modalities for the treatment of peripheral vascular disease as well as complications inherent with each.
