Abstract

Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is one of the manifestations of atherothrombosis, systemic disease, which can affect all territories of the arterial tree. Recently, there has been a growing interest in the early identification of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) as a marker of atherothrombotic risk in other vascular territories, particularly the coronary and cerebral. However, the diagnosis of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is limited since the proportion of patients with peripheral arterial disease is asymptomatic and therefore undiagnosed.
