Arteriosclerosis Obliterans : What is it?

Arteriosclerosis obliterans is a progressive vascular condition characterized by narrowing or blockage of the arteries, which reduces blood flow to the limbs. Over time, this can lead to pain, numbness, difficulty walking, and in severe cases, tissue damage.

Early detection and treatment are essential to prevent complications, improve circulation, and maintain mobility.

Causes of arteriosclerosis obliterans

Obliterate arteriosclerosis results from the gradual accumulation of fatty deposits (atheromatous plaques) in the arterial walls. This phenomenon, known as atherosclerosis, is favored by several factors, including :

Symptoms of PAD

The symptoms of PAD vary, but intermittent claudication is one of the most common. It is characterized by muscle pain, cramps or fatigue in the legs during exertion (walking, climbing stairs),which disappears at rest.

Other symptoms may also occur, such as:

In some cases, arterial occlusive disease may be asymptomatic.

Diagnosis of obliterating arteriopathy

The diagnosis of obliterative arteriopathy is based on several tests:

Treatment of obliterating arterial disease in Turkey

Treatments for obliterative arterial disease aim to improve blood circulation and relieve symptoms. Therapeutic approaches in Turkey include

Medication treatment

The initial treatment of PAD is based on medications, including:

Lifestyle changes

Lifestyle changes play an important role in the treatment of AOMI:

Surgical procedures

Obliterative arterial disease of the lower limbs (OADL),characterized by narrowing of the leg arteries, may require surgical intervention when medical treatment proves inadequate.
The choice of surgical technique depends on several factors, including:

Surgical treatment of IMA

Three main surgical techniques are used to treat IMA:

Angioplasty with or without stent placement

In this procedure, an inflatable balloon is inserted through a small incision, usually in the groin, to widen the narrowed artery. A stent (a small metal device) is often placed to keep the artery open. Stents can be plain or coated with a drug to prevent the narrowing from recurring.

Angioplasty is a less invasive procedure than other techniques and is often done under local anesthesia. However, there is a risk of long-term narrowing of the artery, which sometimes requires further intervention.

Endarterectomy technique

This procedure removes the atheromatous plaque (fatty buildup) that is blocking the artery. It is usually performed on large caliber arteries (hips, thighs).

Endarterectomy is an effective technique for large lesions. However, it is a more extensive procedure than angioplasty, requiring general anesthesia and a larger incision.

Coronary artery bypass surgery

Bypass surgery consists of creating a "detour" using a piece of vein or a synthetic graft to connect the two ends of the diseased artery. This technique is used when lesions are too long or too complex to be treated by angioplasty or endarterectomy.

This technique permanently restores circulation. However, it is a more complex procedure that requires general anesthesia and a longer hospital stay.

The choice of the most appropriate technique is made in consultation with the vascular surgeon, depending on the characteristics of each patient and the disease.

Benefits of surgery

Surgical treatment of AOMI aims to:

It's important to note that every patient is unique and the results of surgery may vary. Don't hesitate to ask your doctor in Turkey any questions you may have to better understand the different treatment options available to you.

Arteriopathy obliterans treatment FAQ in Turkey

What are the risks and complications of surgery for PAD?

Surgery for PAD can lead to infection, bleeding, thrombosis, nerve damage, or cardiovascular complications, but it is generally safe when performed under strict medical supervision.

Can peripheral artery disease be completely cured?    

Peripheral artery disease cannot always be cured, but early and appropriate treatment can stabilize the disease and improve circulation.

How long does recovery take after angioplasty or PAD surgery?    

Recovery after angioplasty or PAD surgery generally takes 2 to 6 weeks, depending on the procedure and the patient's overall health.

Can peripheral artery disease return after treatment?

Yes, peripheral artery disease can recur or worsen if risk factors such as smoking, diabetes, or high blood pressure are not controlled. Regular follow-up, a healthy lifestyle, and adherence to treatment are essential to limit the risk of recurrence.

Can you travel or work normally with PAD?    

Yes, with appropriate care and regular medical follow-up, most patients with PAD can travel and work normally, avoiding excessive exertion and following their doctor's recommendations.
