Twenty four patients (18 males, 6 females, Mean age 50 years) with acute non traumatic limb ischemia were operated on in our institution. The ischemia has been observed after 24 hours in 15 patients (62,5 % versus 7 patients (37,5 %) within 24 hours. The arterial femoral was often (54,1 %) the site of occlusion. Embolism (29,2 %) and thrombosis (54,2 % were the cause of acute limb ischemia. All patients were treated by embolectomy or thrombectomy. The overall mortality was 29,2 % with a limb salvage rate of 45,8 % and secondary amputation rate of 29,2 %. According to our experience, the diagnosis of acute non traumatic limb ischemia is not instituted early and the rate of hospital mortality and morbidity remain high. |
